>Description:
When compiling this snapshot after it had been checked in to cvs and
checked out, the Makefile in appl/telnet/libtelnet tried to rebuild
Makefile, which caused it to try to run autoconf.  The rule in post.in
does (after expansion) '/bin/sh autoconf', and FreeBSD sh does not
search the path for scripts given on the command line.  It's wrong to
assume that autoconf is a sh script anyway; it should just be
executed.

>How-To-Repeat:

On a FreeBSD system, cd to src/appl/telnet/libtelnet, and 'touch
configure.in'.  Run 'gmake'.

 Hi Greg, 
 
 Oops.  This happened beacase you were using the system autoconf instead
 of the built-in autoconf in the krb5 tree.  Normally $(AUTOCONF) is a
 path to built-in autoconf, so what you get is "/bin/sh
 ../../src/util/autoconf/autoconf".  Note that we do have some bug fixes
 beyond what's in 2.12, which I *think* are into 2.13, but I need to
 check to make sure.  So just as a warning, if you're system autoconf is
 the stock 2.12 from the FSF, you may run into some problems.  (Something
 we need to do is to try moving autoconf 2.13 into our tree, and then
 change the AC_PREREQ to be 2.13).
 
 I've made the fix into config.pre.  Thanks!!
