Hmm... you should read the FreeBSD documentation on autotools.
I'll bet you made symlinks in /usr/local/bin from say autoconf to
autoconf259 and similiar.
The other ports (/usr/ports/devel/auto* and /usr/ports/libtool*) are
customized specifically for ports and only intented to build ports via
the ports system.
[Note, if you "know" what you are doing, you can get away with using
them for apreq... but I wouldn't recommend it]
This might help you:
Undo your symlinks
Install these 3

drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel - 512B Nov 26 19:09:20 2005 gnu-libtool/
you'll get a
/usr/local/gnu-autotools
add
/usr/local/gnu-autotools/bin to your path BEFORE /usr/local/bin
Then try again.
