There's probably some autotools invocation that avoids this, and
starting from a fresh checkout probably doesn't have an issue; but all I
did for my existing checkouts after I saw the corresponding change get
installed was:

  mv compile config.guess config.sub depcomp install-sh missing build-aux/

plus the usual maintainer-clean.
