<Mike>
+ Running aclocal: aclocal: configure.ac: 112: macro `AM_PROG_LIBTOOL'
not found in library
done.

This is your first problem. AM_PROG_LIBTOOL is provided by libtool for
use in automake. You need to double check that aclocal can see the
directory where the libtool m4 files are located. On my box the
directory is:

/usr/share/libtool/libltdl/

I had trouble at work with automake-1.7. I am wondering if autoconf-2.54
is not a big buggy as well. Downgrade to autoconf 2.53 and try again. I
am guessing that the latest tools are not ready for primetime yet.
