Well, build depending on autotools and regenerating configure on each build is
really bad style and a bad idea[1].

Also because of this, depending on the version of autotools and the machine you
end up with different diff.gz-s.

I'd rather bootstrap the upstream source and repackage that (it is you who does
the repackaging anyways).

Also, looking at the changelog, I'd give the version number 0.9.5~cvs20071012
instead of 0.9.4+cvs20071012; but that is a matter of style.
