| This is not right either. The version of the configure script is not

I see your point, indeed, it is somewhat incorrect, we should display
the version of configure.in. But given that the version of
configure.in is tied to the package's which is already displayed,
since I do believe being able to read the version of Autoconf is
important, I think the slight abuse is worth keeping.
