- autoconf 2.50 is six times slower. Which in turn means
that developing with it takes 6 times longer (think of
edit, compile, run cycle. Yeah, someone wrote that build
system with a couple thousand LOC)
- limited support of m4 command set. We use some commands
such as esyscmd which are supposedly unsupported by the
newer autoconf tools (or as the main autoconf guy puts it
"It was never supported!!!! Read the documentation!!!!").
We work around that by trashing the autoconf cache every
time.

Try "per minute" and you get close.
