I think it would be reasonable to change codingconventions.html to say
"copied from automake CVS" rather than give a reference to a specific
automake version, get the patch into automake and then update all the
listed files from automake CVS.
(symlink-tree and ylwrap - if they actually ever get used in GCC or src -
should probably also be on that list of files from automake.
move-if-change may come from autoconf.)
