No, it implies that the gatekeeper already has a cvs checkout
and just does a "cvs update" before performing "make dist".
Not being a gatekeeper I'm unclear of the "make dist" process
that you use.

Thanks.  I would just recommend you bite the bullet and update your
autotools.  I think autoconf-2.59 and autmake-1.9 seem particularly
modern, stable, and mostly bug-free.
