both are correct. we simply havent gone changing them all to be called
configure.ac - what we do have does work and it's a royal paint ot trakc
autofoo changes/breaks every few months so we just stay frozen in time and we
likes it that way :)

Perfectly acceptable to me (^_^)

Since I have no such baggage to worry about breaking, I'll roll go with the latest GNU docs.

Thanks!
