This will be your problem.  Those autotools are more recent than the 
ones used for the code which were AC 2.57, AM 1.6.3 and libtool 1.5a.  
There should not be any mention of findImp.c in either 
tools/Makefile.in or tools/Makefile.  Also the autogen.sh script should 
not stop on the missing makefile.am in avcall.  This is normal.

See if you can get the earlier tools, particularly automake.
