Makefile.in.in already has:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
configure: ${srcdir}/configure ${srcdir}/lib-src/config.values.in

${srcdir}/configure: ${srcdir}/configure.in
	cd ${srcdir} && autoconf
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is not triggered by a "make all".  Is remembering to type "make
configure" any better than remembering to type "autoconf"?
