Wow, detect-autoconf.pl is one *bizarre* script.  Pardon my  
ignorance, but is this script run during at any stage of the building  
of devel/kdevelop, or is it elsewhere?

The -wrapper ports are very closely mirrored after what Gentoo does,  
so in of themselves, shouldn't be causing any problems (this is also  
borne out by other usage of devel/autotools, both within IDEs, and  
calling them to build projects manually).

If detect-autoconf.pl is used in the kdevelop build process, then  
changing the "autotools:run" to "autotools:both" stanza in the  
Makefile should address this by bringing in all the versions of  
autoconf/automake, and then going from there.

However, I think the best fix in this is to chunk that detect- 
autoconf.pl script, and reduce it to the last few lines:

#!/bin/sh
#
echo AUTOCONF=autoconf
echo AUTOHEADER=autoheader
echo AUTOM4TE=autom4te
echo AUTOMAKE=automake
echo ACLOCAL=aclocal
echo WHICH=which
echo export AUTOCONF AUTOHEADER AUTOM4TE AUTOMAKE ACLOCAL WHICH
exit 0
