    Yes, use different install prefixes.
    /opt/autoconfX.XX
    /opt/autoconfY.YY
    And add the suitable prefix to your PATH.
    But don't change the names of the utilities..

    The way some systems start to treat autoconf (installing
    multiple versions in an absolutely braindamaged way) is not
    something we should support.
    I suggest whoever is bothered by FreeBSD doing stupid things
    should go to the ports maintainer and complain to him.
What's so stupid about it? Can you suggest a way different versions of autotools could coexist? -- How many Vietnam vets does it take to screw in a light bulb? You don't know, man. You don't KNOW.
Cause you weren't THERE.             http://bash.org/?255991
