Some mysterious autotools errors are because upstream has a custom
aclocal.m4 that we're deleting it unless we know we're not even running
aclocal.  There's a case to be made for removing this deletion logic
on the grounds that aclocal should know what it is doing, but for now
make it clear that we're deleting a file by saying so in the task log.
