Locally I've got several autoconf versions installed so that I can
update back-branch configure scripts properly. It'd probably be a good
idea to improve your release scripts so that they select the "right"
autoconf version for each release branch. You'll need multiple local
installations though, instead of depending on freebsd ports for the
"one true autoconf".
Either that or we try to move up all supported back branches to the
latest autoconf version; which might be a good idea but it scares me
a bit.
