It seems that the configure file on the default branch has been generated with autoconf 2.70. Autoconf 2.70 has not yet been released [1]. The differences between the generated configure files with 2.69 and 2.70 are a few lines [3] added by 2.70 with 'runstatedir' in them. The last old discussion on the usage of different autoconf versions [2] does not really answer the following question:
I am using 2.69, should a commit that changes configure.ac respects the existing 'runstatedir' lines added by a previous commit or uses directly the configure file generated by 2.69 ?
If autoconf 2.70 is not released yet then it's fine to regenerate configure w/ 2.69. -Brett
