I can't reproduce the problem on the trunk, when I build 'configure'
with Autoconf 2.68 (the current Autoconf version). I haven't
looked into the details, but a superficial check suggests that
recent versions of Autoconf generate a 'configure' script that
automatically checks for bogus system clocks and refuses to continue.
We should build Emacs 24 with the latest Autoconf anyway, to fix
some other porting issues; and that should fix this bug as well,
so I'm marking it done.
