That probably explains why the "safe" and new versions have different orders. 
I note that autoconf 2.5 results in the XPM_H_LOCATION and FORMS_H_LOCATION 
being at the top of config.h for some reason...

I downgraded to autoconf 2.13 a couple of weeks ago since you told me that 
that was a good idea.

It desn't explain why all those HAVE_STRUCT_STAT_XXX etc defines have gone, 
but I ran "cvs diff configure.in -r XXX" all the way back to XXX=1.104 and 
could see nothing obvious. As they aren't actually used, it's not a problem; 
I just got worried.
