Thanks for your catch!

Are you sure this is the right course of action?  Autoconf is the upstream source of INSTALL; so unlike every other package out there, autoconf's version is actually the canonical one, and installing the INSTALL file lets other autoconf'd packages copy this canonical version.

Eric, you are right.  I missed the generality of this file, sorry.

Reopening, I'll revert this change.
