[CT-NG:patch 05/19] Force autoreconf for mpfr

In some exotic case the autoreconf step of mpfr is not executed (correctly)
leaving an incorrect version number for libtool in the configure script.

After extracting the sources files, force autoreconf to be executed.

     1 Original patch from H.J. Lu, as reported there:

     3 
     4 fnstsw stores 16bit into %ax. The upper 16bit of %eax is unchanged.
     5 The new assembler (binutils-2.18.50.0.4 and up) will disallow "fnstsw %eax".
