Please re-read my previous posts.  We *don't* have multiple installations
of autoconf -- our IT support staff has a single, globally accessible
installation.  This is actually the central issue.

I made the above remark because someone made the suggestion / implication
that all of my developers could each have their own installation, and that
would avoid the "central IT support" problem.
