autoconf-2.61 test failure & resolution

[hv]

I had a single test failure in torture.at ("Unusual Automake input files"),
for the same reason resolved by Ralf Wildenhues in
<http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.sysutils.autoconf.bugs/5187> - as
in that case, the installed automake was v1.4. After installing automake
v1.10 I got:
  296 tests behaved as expected.
  1 test was skipped.

It is probably common for both packages to be updated at roughly the same
time, but as well as Ralf's patch it might be useful to warn the builder
if the version of automake is such that tests would have failed.
