Most likely, log4c.m4 defines AM_PATH_LOG4C incorrectly, with
insufficient quoting (by the way, the AM_ namespace is reserved for
automake, but log4c.m4 doesn't belong to automake, so the macro should
be using a different name in the first place), and that initial error
then causes knock-on effects...

that confuse automake itself.  But we'd have to see the contents of
log4c.m4 to know for sure.
