# After doing a copy of the source tree (as by 'cp -r')
# the timestamps are not always
# such that a build will work. File timestamps matter
# with the new configure.
# If the 'configure ; make' ends in failure with a message about
# aclocal-1.15 being missing then this script
# will likely fix that problem.
# With 'cp -rp' the problem should not arise.
# Note that one user found the command:
# touch aclocal.m4 Makefile.am configure Makefile.in
# sufficient to avoid the problem.
