Why don't we just put a line AC_PREREQ(2.57) in the configure.ac files? 
This should stop anybody with an older version.

It is easy for me tho be clever here, as there was an article on 
automake in the German computer magazin c't. having read that, I also 
tried to use autoscan on the gui sources and this pointed to a 
surprising big amount of potential porting problems in our code. As I 
really don't have any experiance myself with autoconfig I would 
apreciate if someone with more background here could take over the task 
to step through this list. If nobody steps up for this task within the 
next week, I might do it myself.
