[haiku-development] autoconf 2.13 co-existing with current version (2.63)

Some programs, such as Mozilla, require autoconf-2.13 instead of newer versions.

So, a system for allowing both versions to co-exist needs to be found.

Currently, I'm installing autoconf-2.13 to /boot/apps/autoconf-2.13
and running it as a full path

/boot/apps/autoconf-2.13 --macro-dir=/boot/apps/autoconf-2.13/share
(or share/autoconf)

It works, but does anyone have any better suggestions?

Thanks
