Re: [patch] improved version information

[Lars J. Aas]

For this who don't have m4 as a second language, the result of this patch
is like this:

  $ configure --version
  GNU Autoconf configure 2.49e
  generated by GNU Autoconf 2.49e
  
  Copyright 1992, 1993, 1994, 1995, 1996, 1998, 1999, 2000, 2001

  gives unlimited permission to copy, distribute and modify it.
  
  $ head config.log
  This file contains any messages produced by compilers while
  running configure, to aid debugging if configure makes a mistake.
  
  It was created by GNU Autoconf configure 2.49e, which was
  generated by GNU Autoconf 2.49e.  Invocation command line was
  
    $ ./configure --version

  ## ---------- ##

I hope people agree that this is an improvement...
