[Avail for test] updated autotool wrappers


autoconf-2.57a
automake-1.7.5a
libtool-1.5a

These wrapper scripts have been updated to provide the following enhanced
functionality:

autoconf:

  WANT_AUTOCONF_VER variable support added; now you can
  override the auto-detection logic by setting this environment
  variable.  e.g. "WANT_AUTOCONF_VER=2.57"

  (autoreconf) Add --opt-make
  (autoreconf) Add --opt-warnings
  (autoscan)   Add --opt-debug
  (ifnames)    Add --opt-macrodir

automake:

  WANT_AUTOMAKE_VER variable support added; now you can
  override the auto-detection logic by setting this environment
  variable.  e.g. "WANT_AUTOMAKE_VER=1.4p5"

  (automake) remove explicit -Werror and -Wno-error support;
             replace with the more general (and correct)
             --warnings/-W option
  (automake) add support for --amdir
  (automake) add support for --build-dir
  (automake) add support for --generate-deps
  (automake) add support for --srcdir-name

libtool:

  WANT_LIBTOOL_VER variable support added; now you can
  override the auto-detection logic by setting this environment
  variable. e.g. "WANT_LIBTOOL_VER=1.5"

  (libtool) add support for --preserve-dup-deps

I've uploaded them to sourceware as test releases.  However, you needn't
wait for cygwin-1.5.0 in order to test them.  These are scripts, and have
nothing to do with the kernel.

So, please download and test.
