Hello Mandrake 8.2 users,

  As you may not know Mandrake 8.2 have installed
both autoconf-2.13 and autoconf-2.52. The=20
/usr/bin/autoconf is a symlink to a wrapper. By default
is used autoconf 2.13.
  To make use of autoconf 2.5x you must set a variable
in current environment:

export HAVE_AUTOCONF_252=3D1
       ^^^^^^^^ (just from my memory because I have Debian
at home, and my Mandrake at my job).
Please have a little look in acwrapper.pl
Just run:
 less /usr/bin/autoconf
