Currently a user who has installed Automake in a location != /usr
has problems: The bootstrap.conf script fetches pkg.m4 from the
location where 'automake' is installed. But the distros only install
it in /usr/share/aclocal/pkg.m4.
It is particularly annoying that we cannot download the newest
pkg.m4 through wget (of a tarball or git repository), because the
pkg.m4 is the processed output of what can be found in the tarballs
and git repositories of the ***-****** package.
This patch alleviates the problem. Code taken from GNU grep, likely
from Jim Meyering.
