Hi Mr. BuildSmart,
I invite you to take a look at http://www.php.net/anoncvs.php before
complaining. It is clearly stated that autoconf 2.13 is a requirement. Most
package distributions (I checked Ubuntu, FreeBSD ports and pkgsrc) still
provide autoconf 2.13 and it is not really a problem to have two versions
installed, ergo you don't need to downgrade. Nobody pissed in Jani's
cornflakes, but you have to understand this is the internals mailing list,
not a general help mailing list.
Regards,
