Thanks for the report!  But I guess you are using a non-released version
of Autoconf that changed the default URL: I cannot reproduce this failure
and the CI is green. (OMG, Autoconf 2.69 was released in 2012!!!).

I guess the full fix is as follows.  Installed in maint, will be merged
into master.

(Why do we promote https https?  What do we actually gain?  I can see
it make machines work more and waste more electricity which is quite at
odds with trying to be kind to the planet.  So I guess there must be some
real added value, but which one?)

Cheers!

    test: report.at: avoid tiny new failure
    
    Be robust to newer versions of Autoconf where the package URL defaults
    to https instead of http.
    
    * configure.ac (AC_INIT): Use https.
    * tests/report.at: Adjust expected output s/http/https/
    to match updated URL.
