I must say I'd still prefer to have an explicit AC_PREREQ call in
configure.ac; anyway, this is mostly a moot issue, since if a developer
needs to run autoconf, he should use the same version that was used to
generate the checked-in configure (to avoid introducing spurious diffs),
and AC_PREREQ is of little help here.
