Gnome, macros, support, intl, compilation problem

[dov imagic weizmann ac il (Dov Grobgeld)]

I've was trying to follow the compilation guide for Gnome but I got an 
error that does not occur in the text.

First of all I was a bit confused that CVS pulled out the three
libraries support, intl, and macros at the top level though I didn't
ask it to get these macros explicitely.

Anyhow when I cd to gnome-libs and do 

   ./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr/local/GNOME --with-gtk-prefix=/usr/local/gnome

I get he following sequence of errors:

    `aclocal' will also look in `macros'
    **Warning**: No such directory `macros'.  Ignored.
    You should add the contents of `/usr/share/aclocal/libtool.m4' to `aclocal.m4'.

And that's the end of it. What I don't understand is the complaints
about intl, macros, and support. They are in the directory above, and as
I said before how they got there I don't understand. 

Thanks!
