We insist on the fact that you really need the latest versions of
autoconf and automake. Doing this step on exotic architectures/systems
- It was really boring to write 25,000 entries in the deployment file, so I wrote
a little script <tt>examples/gras/tokenS/make_deployment.pl</tt>, which you may

features to implement for the impenitents! ;)
