The autoconf/automake guys want AC_INIT to be passed the details of the
package directly rather than going through AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE. Update them
both to use the newer style.
This also allows us to pass in contact details for the project.
We set the minimum autoconf version to 2.64 as that's the first one to
support passing the homepage URL in to AC_INIT. That's a pretty old
release by now, so it shouldn't be a problem.
These assignments were pasted as is into the Makefile and
ended up as part of a rule. (Usually the .PRECIOUS rule
which is why the build system never attempted to execute it
as commands, hiding the problem.)

Should have been: '[...] but only checkS [...]'.
So there was a missing 's'. Architectures isn't the right word either.
I decided to write the whole sentence new.
Some of the supplied tools use functions which are not signal-safe.
Most of the times it's exit() vs. _exit().
In other times it's how the standard output or standard error is
handled. FILE-related functions shall be avoided, therefore I replaced
them with write().
Also there is no need to call closelog(). At worst, it allows to
trigger a deadlock by issuing different signal types at bad timings.
But as these fixes are about race conditions, expect bad timings in
general for these bugs to be triggered. :)
Catch up with Automake's [1], which was part of v1.6b, cut 2002-07-28
[2]. Avoids:
$ autoreconf -v -f --install
...
libmisc/Makefile.am:4: warning: 'INCLUDES' is the old name for 'AM_CPPFLAGS' (or '*_CPPFLAGS')
...
src/Makefile.am:10: warning: 'INCLUDES' is the old name for 'AM_CPPFLAGS' (or '*_CPPFLAGS')
...
Consolidating with the earlier AM_CPPFLAGS avoids:
$ autoreconf -v -f --install
src/Makefile.am:72: warning: AM_CPPFLAGS multiply defined in condition TRUE ...
src/Makefile.am:10: ... 'AM_CPPFLAGS' previously defined here
autoreconf-2.69: Leaving directory `.'
