  Even with --disable-autoconf2.52, autogen.sh renames acconfig.h as 
acconfig.old while making 'tree sane'.

Lines 228-237 from autogen.sh:
# Reverse changes to make tree sane
[ -f $SRCDIR/configure.old ] && {
   mv $SRCDIR/configure.old $SRCDIR/configure.in
}
[ -f $SRCDIR/configure.old2 ] && {
   mv $SRCDIR/configure.old2 $SRCDIR/configure.ac
}
[ -f $SRCDIR/acconfig.h ] && {
   mv $SRCDIR/acconfig.h $SRCDIR/acconfig.old
}


and this is what happened to me:

../freeciv-patch/autogen.sh --enable-maintainer-mode --disable-autoconf2.52
make
make: *** No rule to make target `acconfig.h', needed by 
`../freeciv-patch/stamp-h.in'.  Stop.


But if anybody wants to 'make dist' from tree prepared for autoconf2.13, 
acconfig.old too is needed. Maybe file should be copied?
