automake-1.7: no `Makefile.am' found or specified
Try automake 1.8.5. It should built without problems on MinGW. I ran into a problem with automake-1.8.2 (which is the latest from the MinGW site), so it should be considered to require 1.8.5 on Win32.
Upgrading to autoconf 2.59 and automake 1.8.5 did the trick, thanks.
