Yes, that fixed the problem. It wasn't symlinked & I haven't manually 
installed anything other than some kde themes - I always use ports so as to 
avoid this sort of problem.

Actually there were several autoconf files with no version number 
in /usr/local/bin:

% ll /usr/local/bin/auto*

-r-xr-xr-x  1 root  wheel   33128 Feb 14 20:52 /usr/local/bin/autoupdate259

and also:
-r-xr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  3058 Apr  3  2004 /usr/local/bin/ifnames
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  2791 Feb 14 19:53 /usr/local/bin/ifnames213
-r-xr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  3918 Feb 14 20:52 /usr/local/bin/ifnames259

Now I've removed them, koffice has built happily and also the 
x11-themes/baghira port, which has been spitting the dummy with an autoconf 
version error for ages.

Thanks for the help,
