Oh.  Interesting.  I don't know a whole lot about automake and autoconf, 
but it seems as though I've excluded part of the diff to the (generated) 
file Makefile.in.

I suggest completely removing the old directory and starting again, this 
time using the newer version of the combined patch that I have attached to 
this email.  This patch includes the diff to the Makefile.in which was 
missing from the prior patch.

It *seems* to work for me (but I have always had the automake installed 
:-)

Give it a try, and again, let me know either way if it works.
David
