I don't know the specifics of 9.10, but Debian-based distributions have the
'alternatives system' which is supposed to take care of this so you don't
need to mess around with symlinks. See:
http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/91
That means upgrading etc should maintain the currently preferred program.
But it's system-wide, of course, not per-user or per-task.
Yes; however for whatever reason, this has never applied to autoconf -
the only tool I see in alternatives on my Debian machine is automake.
It's much the same on Ubuntu.
However, it would be possible using a Debian package to rename the
appropriate files (sorry, I forget the exact terminology).
This might be the easiest solution, if build fix can't be found.
