Bug#378736: gnome-autogen.sh: bashism

Package: gnome-common
Version: 2.12.0-2
When compiling pioneers with dash as /bin/sh, it breaks on gnome-autogen.sh
(see bug #318424). The problem is on line 154:
if compare_versions 1.7 $AUTOMAKE_VERSION && [ -s $cm_macrodirs/dirlist ]; then
AUTOMAKE_VERSION is usually not defined. I think what is meant there is
REQUIRED_AUTOMAKE_VERSION, which is guaranteed to be defined by the script.
compare_versions cannot handle an empty second argument when using dash.
