It's not clear from the bug report.

aclocal endless loops are a pain to debug.  If you can go back to a
known-good version (of configure.ac and *.m4 files), you may be able to
bisect.  Otherwise I remember that there have been some issues in the
interaction of Libtool or Autoconf macros.  You may be able to find
clues when searching the mailing list archives for it.

Otherwise, can you make a tarball or VCS-repository available with which
the issue may be reproduced?

Yes, sometimes putting m4_traceon() or traceon() in strategic places can 
help (but don't complain about the sheer volume of output; there is
traceoff as well).

Hope that helps.

Cheers,
Ralf
