New automake needs new autoconf.  New autoconf changes defaults for 
directory variables and needs coordinating between GCC and all projects 
using src.  No directories should change until we have a proper agreed 
transition plan dealing with the issues I listed in 
<http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2007-02/msg00842.html>.

When there is an upgrade, the regeneration should be with plain FSF 
autoconf 2.61 and automake 2.10 (or whatever's then current), not possibly 
modified distribution versions people happen to have installed.
