You need some extra m4 macros to be available, in order for autoconf to
use them when generating the configure script.
AX_CFLAGS_STRICT_PROTOTYPES is an autoconf macro, but because you don't
have it installed, autoconf doesn't know it is, and doesn't expand it.
What you need is the autoconf archive collection of macros -
http://autoconf-archive.cryp.to/ - there is probably a distro package
for this.

Has done for years, not actually an issue.
