I don't know of any good way to make configure.in compatible with both
2.13 and 2.52.  If Roland wants, I can convert it up to 2.52, though.

It opens a bigger quesiton in my head of if we should consider
automake, so as to provide a nice example for folks who want to write
translators.  I have a checkout somewhere that I converted the Hurd to
using ac2.5 and automake.  It wasn't too hard.
