Comment(by raimue@…):

 The dependency could be wrong if `autoconf.cmd` is being changed to
 something else than `autoconf`.

 For example:
 {{{
 use_autoconf yes
 autoconf.cmd autoconf213
 }}}

 Would require to replace the dependency on autoconf with autoconf213 in
 the Portfile by using -delete/-append. And of course this is also valid
 for the other commands.

 There is probably no easy solution to this in the code, so it should at
 least be documented that way in the guide.
