Never mind. I was getting some warnings regarding older version of autoconf.
No need to do this now.

FYI, Ubuntu Linux 12.04 comes with Autoconf 2.68. In the rare case where someone
on Linux needs to update the configure file, they'd have to go out of their way
to get a copy of 2.65, since there's no prebuilt package for that version, or
update the configure script with a new version of autoconf at that point.
It’s fine if we need to update it, I was just asking what the motivation was.
This file has been generated by different versions in the past (recently, 2.65,
2.68, and 2.69), and if there was a problem with any specific version, I wanted
to know about it so we could require people to not use that version to generate
configure.
If we do update configure, we should also update the other autotools files,
including aclocal.m4 and everything in the autotools directory. “autoreconf -i”.
