complibs/cloog: create missing m4 dir

Because we now patch configure.in and configure, the Makefile quicks
in a re-build rule as the source files are now more recent than the
bundled generated files, and that fails because the m4 directory
is missing, although on some systems where aclocal is not installed,
the re-build rule does nothing (except a warning).

Always create tht directory.

fnstsw stores 16bit into %ax. The upper 16bit of %eax is unchanged.

The new assembler (binutils-2.18.50.0.4 and up) will disallow "fnstsw %eax".
