The Makefile should probably invoke the run_autoconf script, for simplicity and consistency.

No, I don't mind the new ideas. It's only the enforcing and version confusion. It's also very hard to use autoconf to find the correct autoconf version, so you're back at /bin/sh stuff.
On my system, I have:
autoconf -> ../lib/autoconf/ac-wrapper.pl autoconf-2.13 autoconf-2.53a autoconf-2.54
It might or might not be a standard, but it should be possible to let run_autoconfig (and configure for Makefile) to check for autoconf-<correct version>.
"autoconf" is a perl script. I haven't investigated it further.
