Re: [patch] toplevel configure.in: topsrcdir->srcdir

It wouldn't.  The top-level configure and configure.in are never
copied, and nor run from within multilibs (unlike config-ml.in), so
the patch is correct.

However, it kind of breaks the uniformity of our using topsrcdir
everywhere else to refer to the directory containing the top-level
configury.

If we're to change it, I think I'd rather use topsrcdir everywhere,
than srcdir in the top level and topsrcdir everywhere else.  But I
don't care too much either way.
