Autoconf should be fine - the problem is probably that you aren't using the 
same version of
Automake.  Either update to the current development version of Automake or, as 
some people have
understandable aversions to such things, either uninstall your version of 
Automake or make sure
that your Automake doesn't run in some other manner when you do a build.

To make sure automake doesn't run, you can use the noautoconf.sh script from 
the repository
after each update or remove any of aclocal.m4 & Makefile.in that CVS reports as 
modified and
update until a 'make all' does not modify those files.

BTW, since the timestamps in a distribution should be set correctly, you 
shouldn't have
encountered this problem unless you ran aclocal yourself, or touch some files 
you shouldn't have
needed to (with the possible exception of configure.in).  In any case, it is 
often safe to alter
configure.in and not rerun automake (via the script or CVS updates), so that 
may be what you
have to do.

Hopefully automake will be released soon.  It is scheduled to be.  Then this 
shouldn't be a
problem any longer.

Skipped - I checked in a similar change several days ago.
