Fixed patch that also fixes "gv" error described earlier

This replacement patch not only updates to version 2.1.8, but also fixes the
boneheaded error in acinclude.m4 that tries to redirect standard error using
the Bourne-shell syntax "2>&1" that is not appropriate for the cshell.  This
new patch patches acinclude.m4 to remove that junk before "bootstrap.sh" is
run.

With this change, port-built Xastir should now use "gv" properly in order to
print maps, if gv happens to be installed.

I did not make "gv" a dependency, because it is not required, and is merely
used if configure is able to detect it at build time.  One might consider
making it a build dependency, but clearly nobody was using it so far since it
wasn't working.

I'll check with the Xastir team to see if anyone objects to my removing that
"2>&1" from the gv check in the upstream repo --- no other probe in all of
Xastir's configure tries to do that.
