I did the port from autoconf 2.13 (well, they were using a manually
edited configure script based on 2.13) to 2.5x.  ISTR it needed some
massaging to work properly for DJGPP at the time (some nasty hardcoded
paths were used for include directories, for example), and there was
some use of FILE* that didn't work (unlink() while the file was open,
expecting the file to disappear after it is closed, I believe).
I've not kept too current with the state of splint tho, so it might work
much better out of the box now than it did.
