It's derived data, and the patches will likely not remain valid
after the next release/upgrade.  That basically means that the
way to correct your complaint about autoconf not being run is to
make the port Makefile run autoconf.

A patch to a derived file is not one that will make it back into
the project source tree.  If the patch isn't one that the Postgres
people will accept, it's probably a bad patch.
