ftp.gnu.org has everything you need. I usually just build the individual bits
and go on any new machine. Including downloads it takes about 20 mins.

Also, if you find that you've successfully configured etc on a new platform
after upgrading the autoconf send a message that you want to upgrade it
and it's usually OK in my book.
