Why is autoreconf needed? The tarball has the configure script
generated, and there are no patches for this package. If there's a good
reason, it should be specified by a comment above this line.

Breaking this line that is a bit too long would be good.

Are you sure this is needed? The src/stubs/stubs.h code in libXfont
doesn't exist in libXfont2.
