System: SunOS gungnir.fnal.gov 5.5.1 Generic_103640-24 sun4u sparc SUNW,Ultra-1
Architecture: sun4

>Description:
	I created in a build directory which was an immediate subdirectory
	of src.  i.e.,
		mkdir BUILD-Solaris26
		cd BUILD-Solaris26
		../configure --options --options ...
		gmake
	gmake came to a directory in which it deemed it necessary to try
	rebuilding the Makefile or configure, but the path to autoconf was
	off by one "../".

[...]
gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/src/kerberos/BUILD-Solaris26/util'
making all in include...
gmake[1]: Entering directory `/usr/local/src/kerberos/BUILD-Solaris26/include'
cd ../../include/./ && \
        /bin/sh ../../include/../util/autoconf/autoconf \
                --localdir=./.. \
                --macrodir=./../util/autoconf
../../include/../util/autoconf/autoconf: ../../include/../util/autoconf/autoconf: cannot open
gmake[1]: *** [../../include/.//configure] Error 1
gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/src/kerberos/BUILD-Solaris26/include'
gmake: *** [all-recurse] Error 1

	The path to util/autoconf/autoconf would have been right only if
	the build directory were at the same depth as the source directory.

>How-To-Repeat:
	Create build directory as above; touch a configure.in in the source
	tree; gmake in build directory.
>Fix:
	I'm too new at autoconf ...
>Audit-Trail:
