Re: make distcheck problems on diskd

Squid-2.5 requires automake-1.5 and autoconf 2.13. And performs better
if automake-1.5 is patched.

Squid 2.5 is incompatible with autoconf 2.53, and automake 1.6 or later
is incompatible with autoconf 2.13...

bootstrap.sh knows to looks for parallell installs of the different
versions by most common methods.. so basically all you need is to
install the automake-1.5 and autoconf-2.13 "compability" packages in
parallell to 1-6/2.53.

 bootstrap.sh looks for

    automake
    automake-1.5
    automake15

and verififies that what it finds is the requested version. If no match
is found it will use just "automake" with the warning shown below.
