We use a patched automake-1.4a (2000-05-31), and we use it with a
patched autoconf-2.14.1 (2000-01-13). We've tried upgrading autoconf
before but I believe there was a lot of mess with the AC_*/AM_* macros
we configure automake and libtool with in configure.in so we gave up.
Problem may be resolved now, though.

Sure, rewrite anything you want - I just want the basic functionality.
What kind of test are you talking about, BTW?

OK, I'll remember that for my next patch.
