Package: autoconf
Version: 2.59.cvs.2006.05.13-1
Severity: important

Newer autoconf versions seem to use |#_!!_#| as an internal separator
during the AC_OUTPUT phase; this is supposed to be sedded away again at
the very end, but for some reason it doesn't; see for instance #373953,
where it's creeping into PREFIX and whatnot.

I've verified that this doesn't happen in 2.59a-9; it surfaced in the
first CVS version in the archive (2.59.cvs.2006.05.13-1).
