new packages are at autoconf 2.62 / libtool 1.5.26

and based on raw gnu packages, not fedora's idea of a good schema.

Hit this one in our config...

configure.in:144: warning: AC_COMPILE_IFELSE was called before 
AC_USE_SYSTEM_EXTENSIONS
../../lib/autoconf/specific.m4:385: AC_USE_SYSTEM_EXTENSIONS is expanded from...
../../lib/autoconf/specific.m4:456: AC_MINIX is expanded from...
configure.in:144: the top level
configure.in:144: warning: AC_RUN_IFELSE was called before 
AC_USE_SYSTEM_EXTENSIONS


which seems harmless but worth looking at if someone more fluent than
I could take a look and perhaps even pass that back up the food chain.

I'm guessing this:
------------------
dnl Various OS checks that apparently set required flags
AC_AIX
AC_ISC_POSIX
AC_MINIX
------------------

Should be higher up in configure.in.

Maybe we should even replace it with:
------------------
dnl Various OS checks that apparently set required flags
AC_USE_SYSTEM_EXTENSIONS
AC_ISC_POSIX
------------------

Apparently, AC_USE_SYSTEM_EXTENSIONS includes AC_GNU_SOURCE, AC_AIX,
and AC_MINIX.
