It's probably an easy fix (the FD's seem familiar, and the require is
probably a quoting problem).

I haven't looked at the 2.13 for a while, since (aside from my OS/2 EMX 
port), it's not what I'm using.  However, the autoconf-2.52+patches that
I'm using is here:

ftp://invisible-island.net/autoconf/autoconf.tar.gz
http://invisible-island.net/datafiles/release/autoconf.tar.gz

Both are currently

ftp://invisible-island.net/autoconf/autoconf-2.52-20101002.tgz
