Hello Bob, all,

thank you for the bug report.

As far as I can see, all errors stem from one bug, and this particular
bug has been fixed, but only after the 2.2.6a release, with this commit:
<http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/libtool.git/commit/?id=8ae796bacd9b57cdcb68927d93d696552187b0bb>

I should note that both Autoconf 2.59 and Automake 1.9.2 are pretty old
and it would help upgrading to a newer release.

Cheers,
Ralf
