Thanks.  I decided to got a bit further and comment on the reason
behind it, and fixed other libraries affected by the same problem.
Mark, is this something we want in the 3.0 branch too?  It's only

autoconf 2.50.  I'm checking it in in mainline for now.

	* configure.in (AC_EXEEXT): Work around in case it expands to
	nothing, as in autoconf 2.50.
	* acinclude.m4: Likewise.
	* configure: Rebuilt.
