Hi,

want to compile and install dspam developement version
which needs newest "auto-tools":
- autoconf 2.59 and
- automake 1.8

Trying to compile automake18 from ports collection fails:

root@titan[ttyp2]{290} /usr/ports/devel/automake18 make
===>  automake-1.8.4_1 is marked as broken: unknown AUTOCONF version: 259.

Reason is, that bsd.autotools.mk,v 1.1 only knows about
autoconf versions: 213, 253, 257.

This small patch helped to compile and install automake 1.8
successfully.

Only don't know, if its ok to simply replace
dev_acver=257 with 259.

Maybe this breaks other ports ?

At least something has to be done, to make automake 1.8 compileable.

Is this e-mail enough or do you need a PR as reminder ?
