About the rm -f -r conftest stuff:

My guess is that the last person to update configure used Apple's 
version of autoconf:  Apple seems to have silently 'fixed' autoconf 
version 2.61 to remove some (fairly benign) warnings that appear when 
running the configure script.  Which is fine, but it would be nice if 
the version string for their autoconf gave some indication that it had 
been fixed.

In any case, rm -f is what comes from standard autoconf 2.61, so I think 
that's what should be there.
