+ AUTHOR: Mark Linimon <linimon@FreeBSD.org>
+
+ The ports tree has been migrated to the latest version of autoconf,
+ 2.61. Versions 2.53 and 2.59 were declared obsolete and removed.
+
+ m4 was also updated to 1.10, but this proved to be incompatible and
+ was rolled back to 1.9. If you are experiencing 'Makefile: not found'
+ errors, make sure you are not using 1.10.
