I'm getting the following diagnostics after I touch configure.ac
and then run 'make'.  I'm using Fedora 19 but with automake 1.14
installed by hand.  Are these diagnostics intended?  I.e., should
we worry about them now or wait until after the next grep release?
They don't seem urgent but they are mildly annoying.

make
