More info:

1) Removing autom4te.cache/ allows autogen.sh and configure to complete -- so, this 
will work for the dist tarballs.

2) Copying the updates automake/autoconf/libtools to the testbed allows the autogen.sh 
and configure to complete w/o removing autom4te.cache.

In both cases, no Makefile in the packages tree is built.  So, there's still a 
failure....
