     * Remove automake and autoconf from your path, or turn off their
       execute bits, or something.  (Users must be able to build from the
       tarfile without installing those tools.)

absent system dir write privs, here's "something" you can do:

  mkdir /tmp/stub
  cat > /tmp/stub/do-nothing <<EOF
  #!/bin/sh
  echo warning: $0 called
  exit 0
  EOF
  chmod +x /tmp/stub/do-nothing
  ln /tmp/stub/do-nothing /tmp/stub/automake
  ln /tmp/stub/do-nothing /tmp/stub/autoconf    # etc
  PATH=/tmp/stub:$PATH
