this is the problem, aclocal does not look at that directory to look for
macros. So, you've got 2 possible solutions. One is to copy that gob.m4
file to /usr/share/aclocal, or either to use the *don't remember its
name* environment variable to tell aclocal where to look for macros.

Does somebody remember the name of that variable? It's something like
ACLOCAL_INCLUDE_FLAGS or something like that.
