We're using Autoconf 6.2 for emacs-23, but glancing at the output of Autoconf 6.5 from the trunk, looks like it doesn't look for /usr/X11R7 either. I'm not using X11R7 yet, but my impression was that it isn't supposed to live under /usr/X11R7, but directly in /usr. Does anyone know what the situation is?
