Looks like just autoreconf --verbose --install and that seems to work great .. however I have fallen into the fourth level of dependecy hell as my new Makefile.am files work great and there are now only two failures in the pile .. however I now also get this crud :

WARNING: `makeinfo' is missing on your system.  You should only need it if
         you modified a `.texi' or `.texinfo' file, or any other file
         indirectly affecting the aspect of the manual.  The spurious
         call might also be the consequence of using a buggy `make' (AIX,
         DU, IRIX).  You might want to install the `Texinfo' package or
         the `GNU make' package.  Grab either from any GNU archive site.

So I go looking for makeinfo and then end up building a full TeX install from TeXlive just to get past this.  Also ... i had to get texinfo-4.13a and also looking for texi2dvi :

You don't have a working TeX binary (tex) installed anywhere in
your PATH, and texi2dvi cannot proceed without one.  If you want to use
this script, you'll need to install TeX (if you don't have it) or change
your PATH or TEX environment variable (if you do).  See the --help
output for more details.

For information about obtaining TeX, please see http://www.tug.org.  If
you happen to be using Debian, you can get it with this command:
  apt-get install tetex-bin

seriously ? 

So i have a pile of modified Makefile.am files that I feel like handing over to you as I have done this test now on RHEL6 with these mods and all works great except for a code problem in two of the tests. 

see attached flex-2.5.37_tests_Makefile.am-modified.star.bz2  ( POSIX tar file )

On RHEL6 I see these results :
