CVS autoconf + CVS automake = autoconf doesn't know its version

Hi,

The following patch fixes a problem with CVS autoconf, if a recent
enough CVS snapshot of automake was used on it.  

The problem is that 'automake' now depends on the AC_SUBSTs in
AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE to subst in VERSION and PACKAGE.  Since the same
'automake' doesn't understand 'm4_include's, it does not see the
actual definition of AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE (autoconf bypasses the 'aclocal'
mechanism).  Here's a patch to autoconf to fix this.

Attachment: autoconf.diff
Description: Add some AC_SUBSTs to aclocal.m4
