This might mean you are using an old version of automake.  Which
version are you using ("automake --version")?  I believe you want 1.2f
or later.

You can get 1.2h at ftp://ftp.cygnus.com/pub/tromey/automake-1.2h.tar.gz

According to `guile --version', I'm using 1.2.  But I might actually
be using something from the Guile cvs repository -- my memory fails me
right now.

I don't know the answer about readline, sorry.  Try looking at the
guile web page.
