autogen.sh problem on icedtea tip

[Michael Franz]

Eric,

I don't know what the real cause of the problem is, but I found that if I
down graded my autoconf to 2.61 or 2.62 the problem went a way (I was using
2.64).  On my Leopard install 2.61 is the default, but I had 2.64 from
MacPorts, so I changed my path around to run autogen.sh and it worked.  On
Haiku I replace 2.64 with 2.62 and it worked.
