Well, Yaakov obviously did that for some reason that is not really
transparent to me now and started doing so much earlier than the version
of the current file suggests (at leat in 2014).  From the comments, what
he wanted to do is keep a newer version that made it into cygport via a
submodule in data/gnuconfig… which has never been updated since Yaakov
dropped maintenance, most likely because that wasn't really on the radar
until now.  Now, I could certainly rip out the gnuconfigize from the
autotools packages 1.16+ since these would all come with later versions
of these files, but I have no idea what secondary effects this will
have.

Achim.
