The patch hasn't been applied by upstream, but in newer autoconf releases,
autoheader (now rewritten in Perl) supports command line options to allow
you to add entries to the search path. If you run recent autoheader with
"--prepend-include=." then it should find acconfig.h in the current
directory, which is apparently what the patch aims to accomplish.
Looking at the krb5 package, src/configure in 1.10.1+dfsg-3 has:
# Generated by GNU Autoconf 2.67 for Kerberos 5 1.10.1.
And debian/patches/0010-autoreconf.patch suggests that's been regenerated
by the debian maintainer, and upstream used 2.65, so it looks like krb no
longer needs a patched autoconf.
So it seems to me this bug should probably just be closed now.
Cheers,
