    My experience is that this is a commonly added patch to the system
    autoconf binary, e.g. /usr/bin/autoconf.  So you need to build your
    own autoconf from the FSF sources to get an exact match.  Or maybe use
    a different linux distro that doesn't modify autoconf.  But personally
    I just build my own autoconf binaries to avoid this problem.
    
Yeah by mistake I used a Debian patched autoconf 2.96.  Will regenerate
using vanilla autoconf for subsequent versions of the patch.
