Clearly ChannelDefs.pm should be brought back into sync between the
two projects, but that will only fix the problem after *both* Autoconf
and Automake do a release.  So I’m wondering whether it would make
sense to merge this distributor’s patch to avoid supplying -Wcross to
automake -- perhaps generalized to arbitrary warning categories.  What
do you think?

Has it ever been an expectation that Autoconf and Automake are of a similar vintage? Even if a newer Automake is released, it is not required to be used.

It seems like the patch may be required.
