On my 5.4 system autoconf259 and gnu-autoconf both fetch the *same* src
file (autoconf-2.59.tar.bz2 with md5sum 1ee40f7a676b3cfdc0e3f7cd81551b5f).
The autoconf259 package applys some FreeBSD specific patches - they seem
to be mainly about ensuring the package calls itself 'autoconf259'
instead of plain old 'autoconf', plus a permission change for auxiliary
directories.
(I have attached the 4 patches...)
