IIRC having *the* right version of autotools is essential. I'm pretty sure I didn't, but don't know what to do about it. Instead I've been using a stripped down make file.
My description above is as a user ... not as a developer. My (inexperienced) understanding is that only developers need to play with autotools. Users just use the generated output during the "configure" step. As a *long* time *user* of Linux and free software, I can't remember the last time I had a version problem with autotools, though I have certainly known of developers having issues (e.g. GCC) and requiring developers use a particular (old) version of autotools to generate configuration information.
