Hmm, wouldn't it be better to look for the newest version instead of
"first one that's newer"? The above would work on a buildd where there is
nothing in $HOME or under /usr/local, but could break on user's machines
if they have a script in say /usr/local/share/automake that's newer than
what the package has, but still older than what would be needed to build
correctly.
