 I don't think using the autoconfXXX and automakeXXX ports for software
 that builds outside of the Ports is supported.  Please use the
 devel/gnu-autoconf, devel/gnu-automake and devel/gnu-libtool ports
 for this sort of thing.  These will install full versions of the
 autotools in /usr/local/gnu-autotools and can be used by setting the
 PATH to point first to /usr/local/gnu-autotools/bin and then to
 /usr/local/bin.
