You appear to have regenerated configure, on both mainline and 4.2 branch, with autoconf 2.60. Could you please regenerate it with 2.59 in both places? 2.59, exactly, is the version documented in install.texi. In order to avoid random churn with versions going back and forth and different versions in different directories with no good reason, we must have a transition plan before changing the version used (and keep install.texi up to date throughout the transition with what version is used in what directory), and we have no such plan; certainly such changes are inappropriate on release branches. The changes to directory variables and new configure options in autoconf 2.60 make such a transition plan especially important (for example, we need to work out at what point the local configure options --with-datarootdir --with-docdir --with-htmldir get removed in each directory in favour of the standard options added in 2.60). 2.60 also needs automake 1.10 (and vice versa). -- Joseph S.
