Compiling sawfish cvs for amd64 ?

["Christopher X. Candreva" <chris westnet com>]

I've been running the Sourceforge sawfish-1.3 on Fedora 4 no problems. Just 
upgraded to an Amd64 system with Fedora 4 x64, and no go.  CVS supposedly 
solves this problem, but I haven't gotten CVS to compile.

First, etc/config.guess and etc/config.sub are old even in CVS and need to 
be replaced. Even then automake gives errors:

configure.in: no proper invocation of AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE was found.
configure.in: You should verify that configure.in invokes AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE,
configure.in: that aclocal.m4 is present in the top-level directory,
configure.in: and that aclocal.m4 was recently regenerated (using aclocal).
automake: no `Makefile.am' found for any configure output

Then configure says:

configure: WARNING: X11/extensions/Xrandr.h: present but cannot be compiled
configure: WARNING: X11/extensions/Xrandr.h:     check for missing 
prerequisite headers?
configure: WARNING: X11/extensions/Xrandr.h: see the Autoconf documentation
configure: WARNING: X11/extensions/Xrandr.h:     section "Present But Cannot 
Be Compiled"
