On my Debian Sarge system, aclocal-1.4 is pulling in gettext's
lib-link.m4 from /usr/share/aclocal/lib-link.m4, which causes the
AC_PREREQ(2.50). Temporarily removing the gettext 0.14.4-2 package
while I ran aclocal-1.4 worked around the problem. I do not know the
permanent solution.

The above mantra, when run in newlib/, regenerates newlib/configure,
but it does not regenerate newlib/libc/configure and all the other
configure scripts, each of which replicates the offending line from
libtool.m4 that I'm attempting to patch. Must the mantra be run in
every subdirectory?

Cheers!
