Hi,

During a test rebuild of HDF5's reverse dependencies against HDF5 2.1.0
currently in experimental, gmtsar FTBFS because the related m4 macro
doesn't support this new major release.

The attached patch fixes this issue and support both HDF5 1.14.6 in
unstable and HDF5 2.1.0 in experimental.

Best,
_g.
