 Of course cvs package have autogen.sh.

  Basically autogen.sh is used to bootstrap the configuration and
building process, it has more dependancies than the resulting configure
script. For that reason people which are not the developpers but 
rather users of the software simply run ./configure which itself is
part of the releases.

We should still include autogen.sh in the tar.gz, because people might
be wanting to do patches against the tar.gz whcih involve the configure.ac
or Makefile.am scripts.

  Okay, I added autogen.sh to EXTRA_DIST, that should do it,
still it may be more useful to understand why configure doesn't work on MinGW
out of the box (or rather tarball).
