Thanks, this is nicer. (Should I set my alarm clock to increment the
default in July 2007? :-)
I'd rather not put '--assume-autoconf=2.60' in my bootstrap scripts,
though, since that's one more number to maintain manually. I'll put
in '--assume-autoconf=latest-stable' instead. That works. I
installed the following patch to document this usage:
