I keep getting

./lib/stdlib.h:695:5: error: token "@" is not valid in preprocessor 
expressions
 #if @GNULIB_ALIGNED_ALLOC@
     ^
./lib/stdlib.h:1059:5: error: token "@" is not valid in preprocessor 
expressions
 #if @GNULIB_POSIX_MEMALIGN@
     ^
when running make in the latest version of coreutils.

Slackware 14.2 : 32-bit : VBox VM

I did:
git clone git://git.sv.gnu.org/coreutils
./bootstrap
git submodule foreach git pull origin master
git config --global user.email "celvidge001 <at> gmail.com"
git config --global user.name "Chris Elvidge"
git commit -m 'build: update gnulib submodule to latest' gnulib
./configure
make

Relevant lines from stdlib.h

'sed -n 690,700p ./lib/stdlib.h'
