Suggested patch does not handle all issues involved.

Re open. 

1. this PR wasn't assigned to alane 
2. I am fully aware of having the issues surrounding having multiple versions 
OF AUTOMAKE -- I'M THE ONE THAT FIRST COMMITTED A 2ND VERSION AND WAS THE 
ONE OF THE DRIVING FORCES FOR THE UPGRADE TO 1.4. 
3. There was zero reasons given why a 1.5 to 1.6 upgrade is a bad idea. 
The fact there is a automake17 port has nothing to do with this.  I've read 
the CVS logs for the automake17 port and there is zero resoning given 
why 1.6 was skipped, nor why to "DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT IT". 
4. I've run this verison for a while.

I'll take a look into this presently as part of some remaining fallout 
from the libtool uber-patch.

There is nothing in automake 1.6 that automake 1.7 (or, indeed automake 1.8) 
can't handle.  We're trying to reduce the number of auto* ports, not 
increase them :)
