I not so sure this is the right thing to do (or maybe I don't understand). 
For example this is causing problems in the KDE pkgs which come with patches 
to both Makefile.am and Makefile.in created from a known to work version of 
automake. touch(1)'ing the configure.in and configure.in.in (yes, KDE has 
extended auto{make,conf}) breaks the build for kdelibs.

Why would you ever want to touch these files as they are used to create 
configure, etc?

I still believe that patches to Makefile.am, configure.in{,.in} *and* the 
generated versions from working versions of auto{conf,make} should be 
commited to pkgsrc. Perhaps an AUTOMAKE_OVERIDE that touches all 
Makefile.in's, a AUTOCONF_OVERRIDE that touches configure, and an 
AUTOHEADER_OVERRIDE that touches config.h.in should be created to make sure 
the timestamps are correct.

Final thing is that some pkgs are going to come with autoconf 2.52 generated 
configures (including KDE) which our current pkgsrc autoconf (2.32) just will 
not handle. The same may be true of automake 1.5/1.4p5. Another reason to 
commit generated configures, etc...
