I follow the development of autoconf, automake, and libtool pretty closely,
because they're adding nifty features all the time. I've used some of these 
features in the process of updating Mesa's configure.in and Makefile.am's.

-- FYI --
Here are the versions the programs themselves report:

Autoconf: autoconf (GNU autoconf) 2.49c
Automake: automake (GNU automake) 1.4c
Libtool: ltmain.sh (GNU libtool) 1.3c (1.851 2001/01/05 09:33:38)

And these are the commands I used to retrieve the package sources from the
appropriate CVS repositories, quoted directly from the respective web pages:

Autoconf (quoting from http://sources.redhat.com/autoconf/):
 cvs -z9 -d :pserver:an...@su...:/cvs login
 {empty password}
 cvs -z9 -d :pserver:an...@su...:/cvs checkout autoconf

Automake (quoting from http://sources.redhat.com/automake/):
 cvs -z 9 -d :pserver:an...@an...:/cvs/automake login
     (password is ``anoncvs'')
 cvs -z 9 -d :pserver:an...@an...:/cvs/automake co automake

Libtool (quoting from http://www.gnu.org/software/libtool/):
 $ cvs -z3 -d :pserver:an...@su...:/home/cvs login
 Password:
 $ cvs -z3 -d :pserver:an...@su...:/home/cvs co libtool

I pulled the packages out of CVS just a few minutes ago (my current time is
2001-01-07 16:22 CET), and everything worked. A bug in automake I mentioned
in an earlier mail is fixed by now.


Best regards,
Sven

PS: Unfortunately my Christmas vacation ends tomorrow and I will have to return
    to serve my country for another four months, so expect to hear from me
    again next weekend.
