Hi,

I also had a problem with this package:
dev-util/pccts

I don't remember exactly the problem, but I had to downgrade it too.

I posted a bug for this problem:
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=21464

You can add your details there in Bugzilla.

Maybe updating portage could solve the problem (what's your portage version) ?

What I am sure:
1) The problem comes from the new version of head, which does 
not accept "head -1" and needs "head -n 1". You can see the error message 
comes from an m4 file in the package, in the function that checks the 
autotools versions.
2) I fixed the problem by updating/downgrading some packages.
3) I was unable to install kde-3.1.2 (arts), and I am able to compile now.
4) I use gcc-3.3 and glibc-2.3.2 (unstable packages)

Both old and new versions of autoconf/automake were installed.
/usr/bin/(autoconf+automake+autoheader) are symbolic links to the real 
version. I deleted the original link, and made these links point to the new 
version.
- rm /usr/bin/autoconf
- ln -s /usr/bin/autoconf-2.57 /usr/bin/autoconf
 

Hope it helps

regards
