You have 2 problems:

 i) you forgot to run the bootstrap script to run the autotools
ii) the book was written with autoconf-2.13, automake-1.4-p5 and
    libtool-1.4.2... almost entirely different to what you are
    using.

I've just update the links from http://sources.redhat.com/autobook/download.html
to give the option of downloading a modernised version of some of the examples,
including a new convenience-2.0.  Please give it a try.

Cheers,
        Gary.
