    Force autoconf rebuild in maintainer rules
    
    autoconf normally avoids recreating files that it does not consider
    obsolete.  Since it knows nothing about patchlevel.h (which we read at
    autoconf time using m4's esyscmd()), changes to patchlevel.h won't be
    reflected in configure unless another input to configure has changed,
    and the maintainer rule will re-run autoconf over and over again.  Fix
    this issue by passing the force flag to autoconf when we invoke it
    from the maintainer rule.
