I'm not suggesting it should be rebuilt as part of the normal build that users perform. I'm suggesting that the CI infrastructure rebuilds it for a couple reasons. 1. Make it easier for pull requests which modify configure.in to be verified. 2. Catch problems with newer autoconf versions automatically, as the CI infrastructure updates. These seem like reasonable things to have the CI doing.
