It's stupid to check for a sane value? Fair enough; then the comment should 
stay.

It did work fine; then Lars started playing with Makefile.am et al, and broke 
everything. I tried to track down the problem and in the process upgraded 
autoconf. I subsequently found that the real problem lay elsewhere (ie, Lars 
introdued a bug). Squashing this bug meant that I could configure again using 
autoconf 2.52. 

I have no idea if I could still configure with 2.13; probably yes. I'm not 
particularly keen to investigate!
