Comment (by fbissey):
`sage-src` point is that we ship a modified tarball and it helps generate
it. In my opinion running autoreconf is fair game. You have to remember
`spkg-src` is not run by the user building sage only by the packager
providing a new version of the package.
That being said the change allowed in are only things that are not
trivial:
* removal of files (making a smaller tarball, `gap` anyone?)
* regeneration of script (autoreconf is a case in point if the changes
are not easily patched back into `configure` and al. It is generally
cleaner.)
Whether you want to exercise the second bullet point is at your
discretion. I didn't for the last `singular` patch, but it was a trivial
change.
