I've done my best to minimize the WARNING messages with autoconf, but
that's the best I can do so far...  These shouldn't be related to what you
have below (unless I overlooked something).

I didn't know it would try to run a specific version of aclocal.  What
do you have installed? (aclocal --version)  On my system, I have
multiple versions of aclocal installed, 'aclocal' is symlinked to
aclocal-${VERSION}, or something to that effect.  Running 'autoreconf
--install' may correct things if there is another version of aclocal
already installed on the system.
