I strongly recommend using the current version, which generally can be
pulled in with autoreconf.
I tried autoreconf --force in the top-level source directory of texlive and
got several warnings and one error:
configure:5043: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_DIVERT_HELP
If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow.
I assume I have to say 'm4_pattern_allow AC_DIVERT_HELP' somewhere, but
where?
How important is it to run autoreconf? Could the fact that the package uses
an old version of libtool explain the segfault that I reported in
http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-xfree/2008-11/msg00214.html ?
