This requires updating of Autoconf.  I'm checking the following in
there.

More generally, it either also requires that we bump Automake's version
requirement on Autoconf, or we make the "autom4te preselections" test in
Autoconf less strict, so that it won't fail with Automake which has the
above.  Or move the test to the Automake test suite.

Didn't we already relax the test at one point to SKIP if the version of automake run by the test differs from the version of automake used by the developer building autoconf? In particular:
