Synopsis: FreeBSD default autotools install does not comply with "standard"

State-Changed-From-To: open->analyzed
State-Changed-By: thierry
State-Changed-When: Sun May 8 13:51:23 GMT 2005
State-Changed-Why: 

This is by design: these autotools are patched to be used by
the FreeBSD ports system. Because several versions are required
to address the different ports, they have been suffixed by a
version number.

If you want to build software *besides* the ports tree, you
could use devel/gnu-autoconf, but watch carefully the post-
installation message!
