From the different documentation I was reading that after going to

configure file in the root source directory, just configure.in
there is a difference between
"Installing MySQL from the current development source tree"
and
"Installing MySQL from the source tarball of some released version".
In the development source tree, we have files which need to be
processed
by the GNU autotools (autoconf, automake, aclocal),
whereas a source tarball is created from the result of these tools.
The manual should cover that, but I don't have a specific URL handy.
It's http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/installing-source-tree.html
The development tree contains a file "BUILD/autorun.sh" which runs
these
tools.
