Is anyone using autoconf before 2.59, or automake before 1.10?

I'm using Joost's old autoconf work to try to update the latest
pre-release version of CRM114 to be autoconfiscated: but I'm noticing
some surprises when I move from Ubuntu 8.10 to CentOS 5. In
particular, there are demands to re-run autoconf and automake due to
its use of older versions of those packages, and complaints about not
having autoconf tools for 'AC_UINT32_T' and the like.

In order to support portability, what is the oldest autoconf and
automake being used by any interested developers? Can I rely on
autoconf 2.59, libtool 1.5.22, and automake 1.9.6 to be compatible
enough for ordinary developers or software builders?
