bug#22556: 25.0.90; autogen.sh automatic parameter isn't working

[David Caldwell]

Hello,

Commit aca31e3815b9bd9c696cf0c74cc4a80ad7e35ec9 seems to have broken
'./autogen.sh'. It's requiring me to invoke it with the 'autoconf'
parameter. A quick peek at the source looks like it should be automatic,
but I think there's a bug in the shell code. At least, I needed this
change to make the 'autoconf' automatic under bash. I don't know enough
about the differences between bash and pure POSIX shells to know if this
is correct everywhere, but it fixes the issue for me:
