Summary:                    configure.ac in 1.4.37 broken with autoconf 2.60
Description: 
It looks like with revision 290177, because of AC_COMPUTE_INT, the autoconf
requirement was silently bumped to at least 2.60a. But AC_PREREQ doesn't
reflect this.

Generating a configure script with 2.60 produces syntax errors such as:

./configure: line 20765: syntax error near unexpected token
`ac_cv_sizeof_fd_set_fds_bits,'
./configure: line 20765: `AC_COMPUTE_INT(ac_cv_sizeof_fd_set_fds_bits,
sizeof(foo.fds_bits[[0]]), $ac_includes_default'
error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.1037 (%build)

(The macro simply isn't expanded, because it doesn't exist.)
