These four lines should not happen.  The whole set of `--acdir'
and `-I' flags passed to `aclocal' are meant to force `aclocal'
to fetch *anything* from its own directories, and ignore files
installed system-wise.

Furthermore /usr/X11R6/share/aclocal/ is a strange location.
Does it corresponds to anything you typed yourself
(e.g. --prefix=/usr/X11R6) or does it comes from "elsewhere"?

Has this copy of Automake been patched in any way?  (e.g., it
could be the FreeBSD package of Automake.)

Just to be sure:

% md5sum automake-1.7/aclocal.in
9818714e5743cebf02873d2116a7852d  automake-1.7/aclocal.in
