removing src/libgo/Makefile.in gives the same error as with automake:
cd ../../../src/libgo
&& /bin/bash /home/srs/DEBs/gcc/gcc-4.9-4.9-20140322/src/missing --run
automake-1.11 --foreign Makefile
aclocal.m4:16: warning: this file was generated for autoconf 2.64.
You have another version of autoconf. It may work, but is not
guaranteed to.
If you have problems, you may need to regenerate the build system
entirely.
To do so, use the procedure documented by the package, typically
`autoreconf'.

Any idea on workarounds? Editing the old Makefile.in manually is not
nice, it is very unreadable. Too many things can go wrong :(
