I am unable to reproduce this locally. We use `./autogen.sh` to bootstrap the automake system. Our testing system does this every time on clean git tree, which is ran multiple times on every day. It seems to be somehow related to your system, or some change that your system is not happy with.

Can you try bisect it to find out which commit possibly caused it?
