You got that from the Forums, huh? Um yeah, well, signal to noise there is out the roof. I'd be double checking exactly what the Forum user said, as masking autoconf seems to me like a guaranteed way to get portage to whinge very loud and very long (half the tree DEPENDS on autoconf). Maybe the poster meant to mask a /specific/ version of autoconf? Start by masking the latest version you installed and proceed from there.
