Autoconf 2.13 is definitely obsolete today, so giving hints or caveats
about it in the Automake documentation is not only obsolescent, but
also counter-productive, as it suggests that autoconf 2.13 is still
relevant.
* doc/automake.texi: Adjust. Related rewordings. Since we are at it,
prefer using a more modern autoconf version number (2.68 instead of 2.57)
in an example showing how to correctly use 'AC_PREREQ' in third-party
.m4 files.
