I think it is a matter of what autoconf people have installed:
I don't have, and can't install 2.60 in Debian sid (it only has 2.13,
2.59, 2.61, 2.64, 2.65).
If we'd make autoconf 2.65 a requirement then people who were
using/regenerating configure with autoconf 2.60
wouldn't have 2.65 installed.

Thus I think we should allow both autoconf versions to be used (locally
at least).

As for what version is used when comitting to the repository, I agree
that it should be the same to reduce diffs,
but I'd rather leave it to someone else to decide which version that
should be.
