Any chance that your normal bootstrap process passes arguments such as
-I m4 to aclocal, and the above rebuild rule needs to be fixed?
If you don't have a toplevel Makefile.am, you might need to add a stub
am--refresh:
rule in the toplevel Makefile.in, to avoid some cases of rebuild
failures; more precisely, you should also have correct rules for
rebuilding aclocal.m4, configure, config.status, and Makefile in
the toplevel Makefile.in. I don't think that is related to the
above error though, but I'm not sure.
Do you have a link to a tarball that exhibits the problem, and
instructions how to reproduce it?
Thanks,
Ralf
