Stepan and Paul.

Thanks for the clarification. Indeed it is not all doom and gloom as the
configure script shipped with old releases will still work. It is
probably only a handful of developers who will just have to remember to
use the configure script rather than run autogen.sh when using old
releases. Not a big deal really.
