But it looks a bit different from the one generated in the repo. I also tried autoconf-2.69 that comes with ubuntu 20.04 and the generated file is similar to the one in https://github.com/openjdk/jdk8u-dev/pull/413.  I'm not quite sure which version of autoconf2.69 to use, if anyone has a better suggestion or is willing to help me generate a different one, I'd appreciate it!
