Autoconf of make

[Delorenzi, Richard]

I have just pulled make from cvs there is no configure script. So I have
run autoconf. autoconf (GNU Autoconf) 2.57
And I get the following errors am I doing some thing wrong?

configure.in:15: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE
      If this token and others are legitimate, please use
m4_pattern_allow.
      See the Autoconf documentation.
configure.in:34: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_C_PROTOTYPES
configure.in:38: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION
configure.in:39: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_GNU_GETTEXT
