autoconf-wrapper
------------------------------
THIS IS *NOT* GNU autoconf.

This package provides a wrapper script to facilitate 
using both "old" and "new" versions of autoconf 
seamlessly on the same system.

The wrapper script always executes the 2.5x version of the 
requested autoconf program, unless
  (1) a pre-generated `configure' script exists and was
      generated by autoconf 2.13.
or
  (2) the environment variable WANT_AUTOCONF_2_1 exists and is
      set to 1.

It is also possible to force using the newer autoconf programs
by setting the FORCE_AUTOCONF_2_5 environment variable.

Note that the AC_PREREQ line in your project's configure.in/.ac file
is NOT checked.  It is up to the user to ensure that the correct autoconf
version is invoked by creating a pre-existing configure script or setting
an environment variable, as described above.

Also, the previous requirement that autoconf be invoked in the directory
which contains configure.in/.ac is no longer necessary.
