AC_CHECK_FT2 is not part of Autoconf, so possibly this is a problem
with your definition of this macro, not with Autoconf itself.

This looks like the macro AC_CHECK_FT2 was not defined. It needs to
be defined to valid shell commands, even if those commands are not
executed; otherwise the shell script won't parse.
