It is not possible to regenerate the configure script with a Debian
packaged version of autoconf, since upstream relies on private patched
autoconf versions¹.  If we ever need to patch configure.in, we're
screwed:

,----
| % autoconf && ./configure
| configure:6301: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_DIVERT_HELP
|       If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow.
|       See the Autoconf documentation.
