1980	Popt has unnecessary command	Randy McMurchy	tushar@…	"Noted in the popt instructions is an autoreconf command.

This is totally unnecessary and should be removed from the
book. Here is the result of two builds, the only difference
being the second one uses autoreconf, the first does not:

rml@rmlinux: ~/build > ls -l popt?/lib
