>Description:
Introduce a new target to allow patching of autotools-related
code via a two-step process.
For example: a patch might change a reference to 'autoconf-2.61'
to %%AUTOCONF%%, this target will the auto-substitute the correct
value - ${AUTOCONF} in this case.
This dramtically cuts down on the amount of tree churn required
in the event of an autoconf/automake/libtool update.
