Does the FreeBSD one actually produce different output?
If it did not, why would they bother making a separate package called
"gnu-autoconf" with the note "This port is specifically designed for
developers that want to create cross-platform software distributions on
FreeBSD."?
If it did produce different output, why haven't we noticed it prior to
this? Has there actually *been* a problem that nobody has reported?
Is autoconf actually run as part of any of our packaging scripts? My
impression was that developers ran it and the committed the results
(e.g. a configure script), unlike, say, bison where the scripts for
tarballs have to call it. But then, of course I hardly know :-)
