Eventually, this may be fixed; automake PR 52:

        http://sources.redhat.com/cgi-bin/gnatsweb.pl?cmd=view&pr=52&database=automake

says:

        Synopsis: automake install should not assume gcc/gnumake 

        Description: automake, by default, builds makefiles with
        dependency information created by gcc and requiring gnumake
        features.  In my environment (Solaris 2.7), neither of these is
        available.  Automake's configure should check for gcc/gnumake
        rather than assuming that they are available.  I would much
        prefer a failure message at installation time that having
        automake generate non-working Makefiles, as it does now.

and the bug was changed from "open" to "closed" with

         This is a known problem.
         Either run "automake -i" or disable dependency tracking.
 
         The next automake will not have this restriction.
