This would be an error on the part of whoever last changed
configure.in. You don't need approval to fix this - just make sure
you have no changes in your tree, then run autoconf+autoheader and
commit the generated files.
(if there's an acinclude.m4 then you have to run aclocal too... I
think... check the autoconf/automake manuals.)
