Ok, I've removed everything except the package_version & seen_init_automake
stuff. The package_version
can move to the _AC_TRACE section as soon as it's complete. For now I'm moving
it to AC_INIT.
I also put a check into init.m4 to warn about obsolescence if PACKAGE &/or
VERSION is already set at
configure time. Is this the correct approach? If so, I'll send the patch on
later.

I know of no safe depository of the ultimate powers of the society but the
people themselves, and if we think them not enlightened enough to exercise that
control with a wholesome discretion, the remedy is not to take it from them,
but to inform their discretion.
