although I see that it looks like automake 1.10 was released in 2006,
so that IS kinda old (looks like 1.13 was just released). We can put
a version number in the AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE macro to indicate our minimum
required version of automake. But do you think we should run this by
nmh-workers?
Ya, I just noticed that when I went to build on my Macbook. I was just
starting to peer into the autoconf docs to see what could be done. Both my
Mac's (10.8.0 aand 11.4.2 – I have given up trying to figure out how those
correspond to kittycat names) have automake 1.10; everything else seems to be
running 1.12.
Since this only bites developers building from git I think I'll just bump the
minimum required automake version and update my Macs.
