I don't quite understand the intent here.  The dirname should always
succeed.  The value depends on how the script is called.  I see four
methods of calling the script:

1.  ./autogen.sh ... dirname will yield .

2.  /path/autogen.sh ... dirname will yield /path

3.  sh autogen.sh ... dirname will yield .

4.  sh /path/autogen.sh ... dirname will yield /path

All methods yield the correct path for the context.

If the dirname always succeeds, the second test can be removed.

What is the situation where the first dirname fails to return data?

This is fine.  I like it.
