OSX install problems

[Eric Seppanen]

This is what's wrong: (untar; ./configure; make -d)

Considering target file `all'.
 File `all' does not exist.
  Considering target file `config.h'.
    Considering target file `stamp-h1'.
      Considering target file `config.in'.
        Pruning file `configure.in'.
        Pruning file `aclocal.m4'.
       Finished prerequisites of target file `config.in'.
       Prerequisite `configure.in' is older than target `config.in'.
       Prerequisite `aclocal.m4' is newer than target `config.in'.
      Must remake target `config.in'.
cd . && /bin/sh /home/eds/bogofilter/bogofilter-0.7.3/missing --run

FATAL ERROR: Autoconf version 2.52 or higher is required for this script


I think this means that config.in is supposed to be in the tarball.
