Maybe it should be added to the FAQ that proper (i.e. complete, and
up-to-date) installations of GNU autoconf and GNU automake are REQUIRED to
build fetchmail properly?

Either that, or we'll have to patch the makefile to avoid failure if aclocal
is not available...  (and an aclocal call in a broken installation of
autoconf or gettext will probably corrupt fetchmail's configure script).
