AC_MINIX is an obsolete macro as of Autoconf 2.62; use
AC_USE_SYSTEM_EXTENSIONS instead.  Reading NEWS and running
`autoupdate' help in such situations, e.g.

$ autoconf --version | head -1
autoconf (GNU Autoconf) 2.63

$ cat > configure.ac <<'EOF'
AC_INIT
AC_MINIX
AC_OUTPUT
EOF

$ autoupdate
$ cat configure.ac
AC_INIT
AC_USE_SYSTEM_EXTENSIONS
AC_OUTPUT

The problem causing these particular warnings is fixed in autoconf.git
and 2.64 is expected to be released soon.
