I'm in the midst of doing a clean Feisty install.  I do get the error:

***Error***: You must have automake >= 1.9 installed
  to build orca.  Download the appropriate package for
  from your distribution or get the source tarball at
  http://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/automake/automake-1.9.tar.gz

But autogen.sh keeps chugging away and finally gives up with:

    shift: 364: can't shift that many

You have to go looking for where things went wrong.
