PHP works just fine with newer version of autoconf and automake. For
example I am using autoconf 2.60 and automake 1.9.6 and not
experiencing any build issues. One of the reasons we recommend
autoconf 2.13 is because it has a non-broken implementation of config
test caching and unlike autoconf 2.60 does not require re-running of
every configuration test on PHP rebuild.

php52-cvs' "INSTALL" states:
"autoconf 2.13 and automake 1.4+ are required (newer versions of
autoconf may work, but are not supported)"
@ distrowatch, distros haven't shipped for ages with automake 1.4.
automake 1.4 was released: 14-Jan-1999
current/stable automake (v1.9.6) was released: 10-Jul-2005
(1) why has this not been updated to more recent/shipped/released
versions ? is there a legit reason?
(2) what needs to happen to get this updated? who leads the charge?
