Things that have been automated have a tendency to be forgotten.
However, that is not always wise, for the bootstrap script seems
to have a flaw i think. It checks for the version numbers 
 2.59, 2.60, 2.61, or 2.62
In the meantime i have version 2.63 and i think that works
well also. The version number checking should allow for
higher versions too. I don't have a full answer. You could
extract the version like this:

  Version=`autoconf --version | head -n 1 | sed -n -e 
's/^.*\([0-9]\.[0-9]*\).*$/\1/p'`

and than do a simple string compare:

  if [ $Version \< "2.59" ]

but that is flawed too for versions <2.10 (because 2.9 will be bigger 
than 2.10). This can be solved, but it is going to take more
instructions. The question is: is this really needed? Can the
script not simply issue a warning and go on?
