I doubt he'll need autoconf, automake, bison, flex (or m4, perl, etc.)
for most normal stuff. But yeah, I would highly recommend sed, grep,
findutils, gawk, diff, patch, tar, zlib, bzip2.

Then again, to be completely honest, I find it annoying how most
configure scripts (or similar build processes) rely on so much cruft,
esp. stuff that isn't barely used at all. (Why use grep + gawk + sed +
ed + find if you don't really need 'em??) I think *nix has way too
many dependencies.
