Re: [RFC] Update to current automake/autoconf/libtool versions.


That sounds fine to me. My main interest here is to make updating to the most recent
version of the released tools be considered the "standard" thing to do.

I'm not a heavy autotools guy, but I do try to maintain a standardized
build + test enviroment for gdb testing.  I agree with the idea of
referring to official tarballs from ftp.gnu.org.  I strongly think that
the pointer should say "autoconf 2.56", for example, rather than "the
most recent officialy released version of autoconf".
