Vadim Zeitlin 36f3164ea0 Pass options needed by it to libtiff configure only
Use non-standard but convenient AX_SUBDIRS_CONFIGURE() macro instead of
the standard AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS() for libtiff, in order to allow passing
extra options to this sub-configure script without affecting any other
sub-configure ones and also without wrongly caching these options as
part of the main configure options, as happened before.

This notably fixes the problem with running "config.status", which
complained about unknown "--disable-jbig" and similar options, as they
were cached by the previous configure run.

We could also manually remove these options from ac_configure_args, but
doing it like this seems cleaner and simpler.

autogen.mk

autogen.mk is a makefile provided to automatically update the GNU autotools
build system.  It will run Bakefile, aclocal, and autoconf as appropriate.

The .m4 files required for running aclocal are located in build/aclocal.
When upgrading software that wxWidgets depends on (for example, Bakefile,
cppunit, GTK, SDL, or others) it is advisable to upgrade the .m4 files
located in the build/aclocal directory.

It is particularly important that if you use a newer version of Bakefile
to generate the Makefile.in files that you use the newer bakefile*.m4.
Because build/autogen.mk is a Makefile it will automatically rerun
aclocal and autoconf as necessary whenever any m4 in build/aclocal is
newer than the generated aclocal.m4.

You can achieve this simply by copying the new bakefile*.m4 files from 
PREFIX/share/aclocal/ into the build/aclocal/ directory and
rerunning make -f build/autogen.mk.  Note that you should _not_ preserve
source file times (don't use cp -p) or else it's possible your .m4 files
will be older than the generated aclocal.m4).
Example:
cp /usr/share/aclocal/bakefile*.m4 build/aclocal/
make -f build/autogen.mk

Please don't forget to commit updated .m4 files as well as updated aclocal.m4,
configure, and Makefile.in files to wxWidgets.
