This reverts commit 83aca30f1e8be524780a60b9dd8a14ec5f9de878.
While the motivation of the original commit is fine, we are intending to
drop autoconf in favour of meson, and similarly wish to drop use of
gnulib. Removing this feature is part of that conversion work.

dnl autoconf 2.70 adds a --runstatedir option so that downstreams
dnl can point to /run instead of the historic /var/run, but
