 Because this is an automake-using package, dh-autoreconf can be viewed
 as a superset of dh-autotools-dev, in that it still updates config.*
 but also updates libtool and configure.  Please apply this patch, to
 make life easier for new ports.
 
 We thought you might be interested in doing the same.

Thanks for your bug report and patch, and sorry for the delay in
responding. Yes, good idea, I will definitely incorporate this into the
next source upload.

In Ubuntu, we've applied the attached patch to achieve the following:
