[pkg-fso-maint] xf86-video-glamo and autoreconf stuff

Hi there!

xf86-video-glamo has not been "officially" released yet: upstream does
not provide any tarball and as usual the Git repository does not contain
the autoreconf stuff (configure and so on).

For the first upload to pkg-fso, I opted for debian/rules calling
`autoreconf -i` at build targed.  This obviously is far from optimal,
because AFAIK it means that if you build the package with two different
autoconf versions you can end with different optimisation/configuration.

Is there any official Debian documentation about such a situation?  I
mean, what is the maintainer expected to do?  Generate a fake
.orig.tar.gz with every autoreconf stuff?

Thx, bye,
Gismo / Luca
