It looks good but doesn't apply cleanly to 0.8.2.  I guess you're
patching against CVS.

Precisely.  No matter what I did I couldn't get autoconf to
find the macros in 'config' until I found that option.  Maybe
it's an ancient version of autoconf shipped with OpenSolaris,
`autoconf -V` reports 2.61.

Perhaps I'm doing something else wrong.
