There is a script called ./autogen.sh (I think it must be mentioned in 
the instructions somewhere).  Use that, and it will handle most
details, like running aclocal; automake -a; autoconf in subdirectories 
that have their own configure.in script.

In this case your error is probably because you did not run "aclocal"
before autoconf.
