This is a problem in the port. I filed a PR and assigned it to Ade at
the weekend. The fix is to create /usr/local/share/aclocal19/dirlist
with one directory per line. I just added /usr/local/share/aclocal/ and
it works just fine.
I was not able to update the autotools stuff in LAME-CVS to the most
recent versions we have in the ports collection in the first place.
After fixing the problem with aclocal it was no problem anymore to get
a working configure script.
Summary: Your workaround looks good to me, but should be removed as
soon as the autotools ports are fixed.
Bye,
Alexander.
