You mean provide an autotools wrapper in our autogen.sh?
This is really the task of the OS and not our, IMHO.
You should provide a wrapper script around autoconf/automake which you can
instruct to use a specific version of autotools, eg with WANT_AUTOCONF=2.60
or WANT_AUTOMAKE=1.10

I agree the FreeBSD approach is weird, but we cannot very well tell
them how to organize their OS distribution, and I do not think the
patch is unreasonable, IMHO.
