I know that it doesn't matter as configure is in CVS, so there is no
need for mere mortals to regenerate it, but why is

RCS file: /projects/cvsroot/pgsql/configure.in,v
revision 1.538
date: 2007/11/26 12:31:07; author: petere; state: Exp; lines: +2 -2
Require a specific Autoconf version, instead of a lower bound only.

a good idea?

Cheers,

Patrick

To avoid the autoconf version used to regenerate configure from being
changed on a stable tree.
