What automake version do you use? I've set my automake alternative to
automake-1.8:

ivanova:~/src/contrib/g-wrap/_build% automake --version
automake (GNU automake) 1.8.4
Written by Tom Tromey <address@hidden>.
[...]

automake-1.8 doesn't bail out on this, and this $(ACLOCAL_FLAGS)
including comes handy when you have .m4 files in locations aclocal
doesn't look for by default.

Right, I need to write this.

Hmm, I have:

ivanova:~/src/contrib/g-wrap/_build% dlocate -S `which autoconf`
autoconf: /usr/bin/autoconf

So with autoconf installed, this doesn't seem to be necessary.

Beware of bugs in the above code; I have only proved it correct,
not tried it.  -- Donald E. Knuth
