   I agree -- is there any reason we really need autoconf 2.68 instead of
   2.67?  My system is a Debian Squeeze as well, so I only have 2.67
   installed.

It was what I had installed (I install everything from source in
$HOME/local so..), so I picked that.  I'll lower it to 2.67 if that is
fine with everyone.
