`configure.in' does.

No, I use the gentoo live ebuild, which just updates some checkout in
some package manager directory, copies that to some temp directory and
does the compile there.  So the checkout should be totally clean.  In
fact, I even deleted it and let the package manager check it out anew.
Still the same error...
