	http://www.lovett.com/ade/freebsd/autotools.diff
	MD5 (autotools.diff) = 5f9eef62cba002b6c4fa9a36763160c3

	Currently synced against 2007-05-23 tree, post Xorg 7.2,
	updates if any will be flagged against this PR.

>Fix:

	Request build runs with the attached diff.
	"Dirty" autotools environment (ie: everything) can be set
	up by ensuring that devel/autotools (and dependencies) are
	installed before attempting to build any ports.
