[LLVMbugs] Problems with AutoRegen.sh under Ubuntu 8.10

[Per Larsen]

Hi,

I'm trying to set up a sample project outside the llvm folder hierarchy
which should be possible according to
http://llvm.org/docs/Projects.html 

Unfortunately, I've run into a few problems while following the guide. 

First of all, my systems version of autoconf is 2.61 but the version
check in AutoRegen.sh will only accept versions 2.5x even though 2.61 is
a later version.

Secondly, the code which prompts for the location of the llvm
distribution runs in an endless loop without collecting input - thus
making it impossible for the user to enter a directory name.

I'm attaching a patch with the changes I've made to
llvm/projects/sample/AutoRegen.sh to make it work as expected.

Regards
