Committed in r345788.

Basically those tools update all the build scripts.

aclocal: copies definitions of macros used in configure.in from files
in /usr/local/share/aclocal (like libtool.m4) into aclocal.m4.

libtoolize: updates ltmain.sh, config.sub and some more scripts.

autoheader: regenerates config.h.in

automake: regenerates Makefile.in from Makefile.am and updates some
scripts like compile, missing, depcomp,...

autoconf: regenerates configure
