Still unable to build trunk

[Chong Yidong]

On a fresh checkout of the trunk, I do `configure' followed by `make',
and the result is an infinite loop with the following messages:

  make[1]: Entering directory `/home/cyd/src/emacs/trunk2/lib'
  cd .. && make  am--refresh
  make[2]: Entering directory `/home/cyd/src/emacs/trunk2'
  make[2]: Nothing to be done for `am--refresh'.
  make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/cyd/src/emacs/trunk2'
   cd /home/cyd/src/emacs/trunk2 && /bin/bash 
/home/cyd/src/emacs/trunk2/missing --run automake-1.11 --gnu lib/Makefile
  /home/cyd/src/emacs/trunk2/missing: line 52: automake-1.11: command not found
  WARNING: `automake-1.11' is missing on your system.  You should only
         need it if you modified `Makefile.am', `acinclude.m4' or
         `configure.in'.  You might want to install the `Automake' and
         `Perl' packages.  Grab them from any GNU archive site.

I then installed automake, and did `configure' followed by `make', and
now compilation errors out:

  make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/cyd/src/emacs/trunk2'
   cd /home/cyd/src/emacs/trunk2 && /bin/bash

  configure.in: that aclocal.m4 is present in the top-level directory,
  configure.in: and that aclocal.m4 was recently regenerated (using aclocal).

  make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/cyd/src/emacs/trunk2/lib'
  make: *** [lib] Error 2

I notice, by the way, that the `make all' directive in lib/ ends up
deleting the top-level Makefile, which does not make sense given that
it's generated by doing `configure'.  Something is really wrong here.
