I believe any version of autogen from 5.2 up will work for regenerating
the toplevel Makefile.in and for generating fixincludes, which are the
only parts of GCC which use autogen.
You shouldn't need autogen for GCC testing at all; all the
autogen-generated files are included in CVS. Unless you've been
altering fixincludes or the top level Makefile.[tpl|def], you don't need
autogen.
I'm not sure what problem you're having. Perhaps you're thinking of
autoconf and automake? GCC uses autoconf 2.13, and some obsolete
version of automake, but I don't remember which because I don't like
automake.
If you're moving the ada library into a separate toplevel directory like
the other libraries, then I guess you do need to alter the top level
Makefile, and I'll be happy to help in any way possible. (Probably you
just need to add one line in Makefile.def, add one dependency in
Makefile.tpl, and rerun autogen.)

I'm trying to setup a proper testing environment for GCC testing,
but I am not clear on the version of autogen that is required.
A search in the archives doesn't make me much wiser, and the
obvious http://gcc.gnu.org/install/test.html does not list this
information either.
Also, are there other tools for which we require specific versions,
or for which we know that certain recent versions will not work?
