Possible typo in "Subpackages"

In the 1.9 manual:

"   The purpose of the `AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR([.])' instruction is to force
Automake and Autoconf into search auxiliary script in the current
directory."

I don't understand "force Automake and Autoconf into search auxiliary script". Sounds like it should be something like "searching for the auxiliary scripts".

Again, "The historical default is to search these auxiliary scripts in the immediate parent and grand-parent directories." Presuambly "search" --> "search for", and delete the tautological "immediate".
