The check for when to generate the generated configure script is not
working quite as expected. It currently only compares timestamps if
the local repository has any local changes in the make/autoconf
directory. This used to make sense when we had a committed generated
script, but now we actually do need to regenerate any time an input
file is newer than the generated script.

In addition to `hg status` showing no changes, I think it will continue
to confuse people to generate it into a hidden directory. Was there any
consideration to generating into a regular directory?
