Yes, it is worth standardizing on a specific Autoconf version.
I'm not worried about the fined grained variations of generated
configure, than the availability of macros, bugs or non-bugs,
functionalities. This is a requirement on developers, not
users. For a long time we have used Autoconf 2.59, which contained
a bug, now fixed in 2.60.
