Independent of the question of whether or not in-line comments are a good thing (they probably are for many people), I'm afraid we cannot apply the patch since it would potentially break existing user configuration files. As for the build problem: use 'autoreconf -i' to create a configure script, not just 'autoconf'. This will call all the obscure autotools commands in the right order.
