AM_PROG_AS is part of 'automake'. If AM_PROG_AS is not defined then
automake is not installed correctly
'find', 'local' and 'grep' are your friends. :)
Let's try the simple one first:
locate as.m4
/usr/share/aclocal-1.9/as.m4
grep AM_PROG_AS /usr/share/aclocal-1.9/as.m4
/usr/share/aclocal-1.9/as.m4:AC_DEFUN([AM_PROG_AS],
If that doesn't work then a brute force approach would be:
find / -name '*.m4' -print | xargs grep AM_PROG_AS
That will find the .m4 file that has the macro in it. IF nothing
appears then automake is missing or not correctly installed.
However, if the macro is found but you still get the error from
'aclocal' above then automake is not finding its files. A common
cause of this is that automake is carefully installed into
a versioned directory:
/usr/share/aclocal-1.9
BUT then 'automake'/'aclocal' only look for /usr/share/aclocal.
In this case the fix is to create a symlink.
cd /usr/share
ln -s aclocal-1.9 aclocal

It's not part of the assembler but part of automake. Make sure you
have the correct (1.7 or newer) version of automake installed.

automake.
Look for 'as.m4' - if it's not present then install automake 1.7
(or newer).
