    Bug 780270 - MinGW build fail on Windows (broken m4 macro). · 6cf26410
    Jehan authored
    BUILD_EXEEXT was not properly set (config macro AX_PROG_CC_FOR_BUILD).
    Apparently we need aclocal/automake version 1.13 or higher and to
    distribute ax_prog_cc_for_build.m4 ourselves to benefit from a fix
    released only in autoconf 2.69.
    Thanks to Éric Hoffman for reporting and investigating on this.
    
    Automake 1.13 apparently dates from 2012 and debian testing provides
    a newer version (automake 1.15) so it should be ok to update it. Also
    that's only a build dependency.
