I'm not sure if /dev/null works. But I think it would be better to
simply close the issue, ideally with instructions on where to actually
report it.

I see autoconf uses savannah for bug reports.
So long as simply sending a mail to bug-autoconf doesn't open a savannah issue,
I can set the autoconf maintainer to bug-autoconf, so that mails go to
the right place. (It tends not to work well if two bug trackers talk to
each other.)

libtool is actually set up with proper debbugs integration;
although bugs hardly ever seem to get closed; ref
