You already need yacc (or bison) and lex (or flex).  The only new
thing would be autoconf, and that only if we choose to remove
src/configure from the CVS fileset.  You get autoconf from any
GNU archive site.  2.13 is the current release, I believe.

IIRC autoconf depends on GNU m4, so that's actually two tools not one,
but the installation is straightforward.  If you're on Linux you
probably have GNU m4 anyway.
