This causes a build error.
source='nl_langinfo.c' object='nl_langinfo.o' libtool=no \
        DEPDIR=.deps depmode=sgi /bin/ksh ../build-aux/depcomp \

cfe: Error: ./langinfo.h:116: Badly formed constant expression.
./langinfo.h 130: Syntax error
cfe: Error: ./langinfo.h:130: Badly formed constant expression.

I see in config.log:
HAVE_LANGINFO_T_FMT_AMPM=''
HAVE_LANGINFO_YESEXPR=''

Looks like just missing initialization in langinfo_h.m4.
