Should we patch this? I didn't check if the version has any real
impact on anything.

In the tarball the timestamp of aclocal.m4 is "Feb 24 13:44" and the
timestamp of include/config.h.in is "Feb 24 13:43".
Since aclocal.m4 is a dependency of include/config.h.in through a rule
created by automake, a "make" call rebuilds include/config.h.in. The
problem is that if the user hasn't autoheader installed the build will
fail.
The workaround is just "touch include/config.h.in". But it shouldn't be needed.

Why the timestamp of aclocal.m4 is more recent than the one of
include/config.h.in? No idea. But I guess something "touched"
aclocal.m4.
