Thanks. The problem is that $prefix/share/aclocal mustn't be in aclocal's m4
directory search path, in spite of the fact that I'm passing --prefix= to
gnopernicus's autogen.sh. I didn't find where ACLOCAL_FLAGS is defined, but the
configure worked when I did:

   aclocal -I $prefix/share/aclocal
   autoconf
   ./configure --prefix=$prefix

This, to me, looks like it may be a deficiency of gnome-autogen.sh.
