Comment:

 I think it's safe to require autoconf 2.59 or 2.60 - it will only affect
 those building from Hg, not those building from tarball.

 Brendan, we can

  1. keep --with-docdir as override for --docdir and emit a warning that
 users should use --docdir instead
  1. otherwise support --docdir.

 That should keep compatibility of --with-docdir for 1.6 (so as not to
 break existing builds) while at the same time providing GNU standard
 compliance for those who use it.

 Are you willing to take a patch that fulfills these criteria and reset the
 milestone to 1.6?
