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 -- Alan Modra Australia Development Lab, IBM
