not enough testing in ./configure

[Tamas SZERB]

I am currently using that:
address@hidden:~/pptpd-1.0.1$ ./configure --version
configure generated by autoconf version 2.13

so I have a Makefile:

..
ACLOCAL = @ACLOCAL@
AUTOCONF = @AUTOCONF@
AUTOMAKE = @AUTOMAKE@
AUTOHEADER = @AUTOHEADER@
..

and running ./configure I produced the following:
..
ACLOCAL = /home3/toma/pptpd-1.0.1/missing aclocal
AUTOCONF = autoconf
AUTOMAKE = /home3/toma/pptpd-1.0.1/missing automake
AUTOHEADER = autoheader
..

But the autoconf and autoheader is not a working version:

address@hidden:~/pptpd-1.0.1$ autoconf 
Autoconf requires GNU m4 1.1 or later
address@hidden:~/pptpd-1.0.1$ autoheader 
Autoconf requires GNU m4 1.1 or later

sot the Makefile will be not correct because the too simple testing:

(
configure:739: checking for working autoconf
configure:765: checking for working autoheader
)

if (autoconf --version) < /dev/null > /dev/null 2>&1; then

and

if (autoheader --version) < /dev/null > /dev/null 2>&1; then

So I suppose the following:

address@hidden:~/pptpd-1.0.1$ autoheader          
Autoconf requires GNU m4 1.1 or later
address@hidden:~/pptpd-1.0.1$ echo $?
1

address@hidden:~/pptpd-1.0.1$ autoconf   
Autoconf requires GNU m4 1.1 or later
address@hidden:~/pptpd-1.0.1$ echo $?
1

This way everithing will be OK.
