As you probably know, autoconf is only necessary for bootstrapping
the distribution that was checked-out from the repository. Once
configure & friends have been generated, the distribution can be
used on other machines that don't even have autoconf installed.
As is normally the case, the release distributions will have
configure, etc., included so that end-users won't have to run
reconf.

I don't know for I didn't put it there. But I would think there
was a reason. Also note that 2.60 was released somewhere mid-2006,
so it is almost 2 years old.
