I recommend that you build depend on the autotools-dev package
instead (which is already pulled in) and that you upgrade to that
version at build time.

You should probably take a look at the license of your
documentation.  I have to wonder what "modified versions [...]
under the conditions for verbatim copying" means.  That seem to
conflict with itself.

You also might want to look into the license of src/alloca.c.
