In the top-level file 'configure', find the string "2.19)" [or even "2.20)"]
then: just above that line, add a line "2.21)".  That will be a quick-and-dirty
workaround.  Obviously if you have more energy then you can extend
the script and its clients by following the example for 2.19 or 2.20.
For the truly motivated, then work with configure.ac.
