Hi Ron,

In Ubuntu, we've recently patched speex to use dh-autoreconf at build time. 
>From time to time, a new port will require changes to autotools-provided
files, as you know; usually this is just config.sub/config.guess, but in the
case of the recent Linux ppc64el port, changes to ltmain.sh from libtool
were also required.

Calling dh-autoreconf on each build ensures that the package remains
buildable across future ports, without the need for intrusive updates to the
source via porter NMUs.

It would be great if you could include this patch so that speex can be built
for new ports without source changes.

Thanks for considering,
