You probably want to upgrade to 2.13 anyway. The particular 2.13
feature I use seems to be AC_SEARCH_LIBS, and I have been doing that
for a long time (at least since February 27, according to cvs
annotate)...

config.h.in is generated automatically from configure.in and
acconfig.h, and this rule says how and when to do that. If it is
invoked, it is probably because either (i) you have edited
configure.in or acconfig.h, or (ii) for some reason stamp-h.in doesn't
exist or has the wrong timestamp.

Error messages, and -v or --debug output, please.
