I agree.  Using the same version of autotools for binutils+gdb+gcc is
a good idea.

Why are we talking about such a small upgrade though?  Wouldn't it
make more sense to move to the latest released autotools?  Not for new
features, but for the bug fixes that have accumulated over the years.
I know there have been bug reports about the versions we use..
eg. https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=16948
