I did not look closely at it, but according to the changelog
this seems fine to me.

autoreconf 2.13 didn't accept any nonoption arguments.  Some
later version of autoreconf added support for passing in
directory names.  Probably, this feature was added after I wrote
the wrapper, because the autoreconf wrapper doesn't understand
nonoption arguments at all.  So, speaking as autoconf2.13
maintainer, I think the proper solution here is to make the
autoreconf wrapper treat nonoption arguments as indicating that
version 2.50 is to be used.  I'll look at doing that.

Feel free to reassign this bug to autoconf2.13, if you think that
that is appropriate.

[I could also call autoreconf with --install instead of -i by default,
which should cause the wrapper to run the new autoreconf and forward
the other arguments. But this seems a bit ugly.]

I CCed the autoconf2.13 maintainer for further input on this
topic.

What about packages wishing to use dh-autoreconf with autoconf2.13? I
don't think there are any, but is this a reason to prevent their
co-existence on a system?
