doc fix: mention top_builddir / abs_top_builddir idiosyncracy


From: Thien-Thi Nguyen
Subject: doc fix: mention top_builddir / abs_top_builddir idiosyncracy
Date: Fri, 26 Apr 2002 17:32:42 -0700

        * doc/autoconf.texi: Mention that `top_builddir' and
        `abs_top_builddir' should not be used in the actual
        top-level build directory.      

(alternatively, autoconf needs to guarantee top_builddir is non-empty.)
