I removed the "GUI" part.

I removed that.  What about autoconf, does it get installed by other
packages, or does it need to be installed separately?  If the latter,
I think the only alternative is the one I provided on sourceforge, is
that right?

I also added a pointer to --enable-locallisppath switch.

Thanks.
