The problem is that when you patch your sources, the timestamps get messed
up and the build process tries to remake the auto-generated files again
even if there's no need. It's too tedious to make a diff/patch file that
maintains the right order so that autogenerated files are patched *after*
the ones they depend on.

Of course, you can just get autoconf and automake packages from 
ftp://sourceware.cygnus.com/pub/ or ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/ and
let it regenerate these files again.

Or, I can just upload the whole gcc-2.95.2 source tree already patched 
that you can download and use that instead.  Would that work better?
