Unfortunately, cvs.alobbs.com seems to be unreachable, so I have to guess.

Guess one: You forgot AC_PROG_CC in configure.ac.
Guess two: You gave Automake the option no-dependencies and there is
really a bug in Automake (there's been a similar report before).

But without more details it's hard to tell.  Best would be if you
posted a small complete example (including configure.ac and Makefile.am)
exposing the issue.
