--- Comment #9 from Allan McRae <allan at archlinux dot org> ---
Testing for autoconf in a configure script... interesting!
Looking into the history of this, it appears to have been introduced so that
when the old "--with-cvs" flag was used, calling make would regenerate
configure and friends when their source file was updated. When building with
"--without-cvs" this check was not performed and make would not update any of
these files.
Can I just kill this check? It does not seem something that should be done
during configure and make.
