Thanks for the replies. Doesn't make a major difference, but at least it
will generate a trunk of unrelated diff when a user regenerates configure
file using 2.59 if there is any update. It is a little annoying. It will be
great if we could remain consistent with the version, either 2.59 or 2.59d,
as it won't make much difference with the real result. Since 2.59 is more
widely used, probably it is better to go for?
