You have m4 macros in the m4 directory, so that autoreconf knows that they are there it is recommended to set ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS = "-I m4" in the top-level Makefile.am.

    I've tested the change, it's essential for autoreconf to work out of the box, and the diff is simply adding that line to the top-level Makefile.am.
