TODO: update

Add TODO list for m4, autoconf, automake and libtool.
Building our own versions would remove burden from the users
who have older versions on their distributions, and are not
ready/able/allowed to upgrade.

     7 http://sources.redhat.com/ml/binutils/2004-06/msg00165.html
     8 to do this dynamically.  No idea why that didn't make it in.
