making zsh-2.6beta18 fails; stamp-h.in

[Johannes Kroeger]

Making zsh-2.6beta18 fails with the following error message:

/usr/src/zsh-2.6-beta18# make
cd . && autoheader
/bin/sh: autoheader: command not found
make: *** [stamp-h.in] Error 127

I don't have autoconfig on my system and didn't need it to compile
zsh-2.6beta17 successfully.  So I compared the modification dates of
stamp-h.in and the files it depends on in beta17 and beta18, and voila:

/usr/src/zsh-2.6-beta17# ls -lU stamp-h.in configure.in acconfig.h aclocal.m4 
-rw-r--r--   1 root     wheel           1 May  6 16:09 stamp-h.in
-rw-r--r--   1 root     wheel       15373 May  3 20:54 configure.in
-rw-r--r--   1 root     wheel        4688 May  6 16:09 acconfig.h
-rw-r--r--   1 root     wheel        1933 May  6 16:09 aclocal.m4

/usr/src/zsh-2.6-beta18# ls -lU stamp-h.in configure.in acconfig.h aclocal.m4
-rw-r--r--   1 root     wheel           1 May  6 16:09 stamp-h.in
-rw-r--r--   1 root     wheel       16219 May 21 19:46 configure.in
-rw-r--r--   1 root     wheel        4886 May 15 16:17 acconfig.h
-rw-r--r--   1 root     wheel        1933 May  6 16:09 aclocal.m4

In beta18, stamp-h.in is older than configure.in, so make tries to rebuild it
and fails on my system because I don't have autoheader.

The fix is very simple: "touch -r configure.in stamp-h.in" and all works fine.
