I found this (against 1:2.4.43-3) to be a slight improvement in the
following ways:
* I generally prefer to use autoreconf whenever possible rather than
calling the individual tools. We do have to avoid calling autoheader
since attr has a custom config.h.in. I found it better to make that
explicit so that it's clear that not calling autoheader isn't just
an accidental omission.
* libtoolize -i (via autoreconf -i) arranges to copy over
config.guess; it won't do so without -i, at least not with the
version of libtool currently in Ubuntu.
* We need to keep the local version of install-sh, since it
understands DIST_ROOT; libtoolize -i would normally overwrite it.
Since this is an unusual build system requirement, I thought it was
clearest to explicitly preserve it in debian/rules.
* Always pass --build to configure.
* Build-depend on automake for aclocal.
