Hi Barry, John,

Thanks for your feedback. Although while I'm trying to have my IT support 
update to the latest version, I wonder why 2.59 doesn't work then.
 
$ autoconf --version
autoconf (GNU Autoconf) 2.59
Written by David J. MacKenzie and Akim Demaille.

Thanks,
Javier

Ha, just spent an hour on this myself.  Can someone add a note to that  
effect at the top of regenerate-makefiles.sh?  It currently only says  
this:

# NOTE:
# Versions 1.9 (or higher) of aclocal and automake are required.

Adding the following line would be great:

# Version 1.6 (or higher) of autoconf is required
