developer.postgresql.org apparently hates me. After waiting an insanely long time to copy over the exported tarball to that machine, I tried to follow the instructions at http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Alpha_release_process but of course it didn't work: $ src/tools/version_stamp.pl alpha4 Stamped these files with version number 9.1alpha4: configure.in doc/bug.template src/include/pg_config.h.win32 src/interfaces/libpq/libpq.rc.in src/port/win32ver.rc Don't forget to run autoconf 2.63 before committing. $ autoconf --version autoconf (GNU Autoconf) 2.62 Copyright (C) 2008 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

Untested combinations of 'autoconf' and PostgreSQL versions are not recommended. You can remove the check from 'configure.in' but it is then your responsibility whether the result works or not. configure.in:22: the top level autom4te-2.62: /usr/local/bin/gm4 failed with exit status: 1 As Magnus pointed out to me on IM, there must be a usable version of autoconf on this machine somewhere if it's doing the nightly snapshot builds, but beats me where it is.
