1) "autoreconf -i" is not enough. It needs to be executed "autoreconf -fi"
and to have proper visibility reconfigure issues should be
executed "autoreconf -fiv"

2) Looks like still no one performed experiment of rebuilding all
existing packages with %configure macro in spec by execute:

$ for i in *.src.rpm; do rpmbuild --rebuild -D "_configure 'autoreconf
-fiv; configure'" $i; done

To check which Fedora packages are failing in the build environment with
autoconf 2.71.
