That script will disappear shortly.  If you're using the CVS tree you should
run ./autogen.sh on whatever you want to build.

While I'm at it, if anyone wants their library's autogen'ed in the snapshots
automatically add its name to the file degas/lib/autogen.dirs and commit.

Well, we've been yelling to people that they need
autoconf,automake,libtool,etc.  but apparently we forgot to say that to
actually use those tools you should use the autogen.sh :)
I'll add that too to the web pages and the degas/lib/README.requirements now.
