OK, I installed an isolated 2.13 and it works as expected. I guess I'll keep it around for GRASS.

I updated configure[.in] + some makefiles in dev6 branch so that configure + compile works on OSX for a 64bit build with a 32bit TclTk Aqua.

Configure was a bit messy, since the saving of LDFLAGS happens within the AC test macro.

2.13 was the last version before autotools degenerated into an
incomprehensible mess.

I could try installing autoconf 2.13 in a sandbox, so it leaves Xcode alone...

There's only the 2.61 from Xcode. Is that 2.13 an absolute requirement or a minimum? I don't see why a newer autoconf shouldn't support an older
configure.in.

Because it is autoconf :)

I tried the more complete sequence of aclocal/autoheader/automake/ autoconf,
but got a bunch of missing template warnings in autoheader.

I darkly remember that I made tests with 2.51 but quickly gave up.
2.13 seems to be an absolute requirement.
