Subject: man page for autoconf doesn't document all available options
Package: autoconf
Version: 2.63-3
Severity: minor

"autoconf --help" provides documentation for the option "--install"
while "man autoconf" does not.

More generally, comparing the two outputs, "autoconf --help" seems to
give more precisions about the available options.
