The $Id$ keywords were used in Subversion where they can be substituted
with filename, last revision number change, last changed date, and last
user who changed it.
In Git this functionality is different and can be done with Git attribute
ident. These need to be defined manually for each file in the
.gitattributes file and are afterwards replaced with 40-character
hexadecimal blob object name which is based only on the particular file
contents.
This patch simplifies handling of $Id$ keywords by removing them since
they are not used anymore.
configure.ac was introduced in 2001 with automake-1.15 and autoconf-2.50
to replace the file named configure.in.
Autotools is preparing to remove configure.in in Automake 2.0.
All new software should be using configure.ac.
This also fixes Bug #69770 where extensions are creating configure.in

- added support for externally built modules,
- improved support for in-tree shared modules,
- fixed diversion bugs,
- configure displays some informative messages,
- faster static build
(libtool isn't used anymore for compiling non-PIC objects),
- dependencies comparable to automake's without requiring GNU make or GCC,
- working make clean for non-GNU makes.
- PHP-specific changes are easier to maintain
- it removes one dependency for users (i.e. GNU vs. FreeBSD ports)
I have not removed the libtool check in buildconf, since libzend/TSRM still
depend on a local version of libtool.
with libtool components
* SAPI targets can enable thread-safe mode and define
shared/static/program build target
* all configure scripts use the same config.cache
* phplibdir is $(top_builddir)/modules to avoid
permission problems
* sapi/*/Makefile.inc are gone
* runpath handling cleaned up
* top-level Makefile.in obsoleted through Makefile.am
* --enable-versioning uses libtool's cleaner and more
portable -export-symbols feature
extensions you are including. Got rid of configure.in.in.
Moved the last Apache-specific files into sapi/apache and made both
static and DSO build work again (it still doesn't run properly).
