This is half an issue report and half a pull request.
The reason for this is that while autoreconf -fi works for most of the
needed scripts it doesn't copy ltmain.sh into build-aux which results
the following ./configure failure:
configure.ac:137: error: required file 'build-aux/ltmain.sh' not found
This patch, which is a similar one I've provided to cloog[0] which
allows ./configure to at least complete.
I'm not sure what you think since obviously the directory was used for
some reason, likely to reduce top-level directory clutter, but this at
least works for me.
