System: FreeBSD thor.farley.org 6.0-STABLE FreeBSD 6.0-STABLE #1: Thu Nov 17 14:07:35 CST 2005 root@thor.farley.org:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/THOR i386

>Description:
Within the run-autotools rule in ports, autoheader is run after automake
and autoconf.  If a port needs to run all four auto* tools, then it will
(at least for me) fail.

>How-To-Repeat:
Run make configure on a port that only has a configure.ac and
Makefile.am.  The output I get:

configure.ac: installing `./install-sh'
configure.ac: installing `./missing'
common/b5c/Makefile.am: installing `./depcomp'
configure.ac:20: installing `./config.guess'
configure.ac:20: installing `./config.sub'
configure.ac:4: required file `config.h.in' not found

autoheader is the one creating the config.h.in.

>Fix:

Just place autoheader before automake in the run-autotools rule.
