Debian stable is squeeze now, and it contains autoconf 2.67-2. You 
probably meant oldstable -- Lenny. Time to upgrade :)

This is unfortunate -- I acted with assumption that those who build 
Cfengine from SVN also have sufficiently new build environment.

As this assumption does not match reality, I am going to set up 
producing and publishing tarballs with generated files every day. Is 
that ok?

Well, generating configure on any modern machine and building on Lenny 
is one possible workaround until aforementioned steps are taken.
