One extra point: I recommend you use the latest autoconf/automake,
because they're much more coherent and much more like a proper language
than earlier versions. (Right now that's autoconf-2.53, automake-1.6.1,
libtool-1.4d.)
Also, use `autoconf --warnings=all': many of the warnings are actually
damn useful.

Read the autobook too (New Riders, and <http://sources.redhat.com/autobook/>:
it's very good IMHO.
