Description
Run `autoconf' and `autoheader' where appropriate) repeatedly to remake the Autoconf `configure' scripts
and configuration header templates in the directory tree rooted at the current directory.
By default, it only remakes those files that are older than their predecessors. If you install a new
version of Autoconf, running `autoreconf' remakes all of the files by giving it the `--force' option.
