Thanks, Darin.

You are right, of course.  Regarding needing the new autoconf
version, I am just applying the changes recommended in the 
Gnome 2.0 Porting Guide, so I expect that all the packages
ported to Gnome 2.0 will require the same version of autoconf.
This isn't a problem, is it?

On further exploration, I find that the values for all the VERSION
variables are not getting set.  I don't know why.  Maybe
AC_INIT_AUTOMAKE is causing the environment to get lost?  I have
not found any good explanation for this, yet. 

Anyhow, I'll keep on working on the patch until I get this solved.
Then, I'll resubmit it.

Thanks for the feedback,
