This release was built with GNU automake 1.5 patched as follows:
2001-09-24 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
* m4/header.m4 (_AM_Config_Header_Index): Remove.
(AM_CONFIG_HEADER): Don't use it. It wasn't working, and was
causing needless rebuilds.
2001-09-14 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
* lib/am/distdir.am (REMOVE_DISTDIR):
New macro. Do not change permission of non-directories.
(distdir, dist, dist-bzip2, dist-tarZ, dist-shar, dist-zip, dist-all,
distcheck): Use it.

and with GNU autoconf 2.52 patched as follows:
2001-09-15 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
Fix bug reported by Paul Townsend on AIX 4.3.3.0 with
CFLAGS=-O4 or CFLAGS=-O5. In that case, the linker has a
relaxed view of fatal errors, and AC_CHECK_LIB causes it to
include libraries even when they don't exist.
* acheaders.m4 (AC_HEADER_DIRENT): Use AC_SEARCH_LIBS, not
AC_CHECK_LIB, so that we don't use -ldir or -lx if we don't
need it.
* acspecific.m4 (AC_ISC_POSIX): Replace the old, crufty
version with the version used by fileutils 4.1, except use
AC_SEARCH_LIBS, not AC_CHECK_LIB, so that we don't use
-lcposix if we don't need it.
