[GNU Autoconf 2.57] testsuite: 40 failed

[J C Fitzgerald]

Hi,

While running 'make check' for autoconf-2.57, I got the error:

    40. torture.at:650: FAILED near `torture.at:684'

Observing this comment in tests/torture.at (line 567):

    # We have to use configure.in, not configure.ac, if we still want to
    # be compatible with Automake 1.4: aclocal (run by autoreconf) would
    # die because it can't find configure.in.

and finding this in testsuite.log (line 370):

    aclocal: couldn't open `configure.in': No such file or directory

and being on Automake 1.4, I made the following changes:

and reran 'make check' which complete successfully with:

    All 174 tests were successful (4 skipped).
