I didn't look at the particular change, but one thing that sometimes
happens is that some distros patch auto*, affecting their output. So,
you can wind up with spurious patches even though the version appears to
be correct.
I personally deal with this by installing the upstream releases in their
own prefix, and then changing my path when I need them.
