cvs and autoconf

From

I think I might be a good idea to include all the file produced by
"./bootstrap" into the CVS tree.  This would allow someone without
autoconf or automake to grab to CVS tree and compile the program.  I
also allows us to use the more advanced features of autoconf 2.57+ and
automake 1.7.3+, but not prevent people from compiling on platforms
without those versions.  For example, on my Mac OS X box, I have only
autoconf 2.52 and automake 1.6.1.  I can't run ./bootstrap on my
machine because our configure.ac requires autoconf 2.57.  Also, we need
a later version of automake as well.  If "configure" was included in
the CVS tree, then I could download and compile pgadmin3 on my Mac
without having to create configure on my linux box first.  What does
everyone think?
