Could this possibly be an automake version problem. Are you perhaps running version 1.5. If so, you might try 1.4. Your errors are jarring my memory, I do believe I had similar problems when I installed 1.5, which were resolved when I reverted to version 1.4. I do not believe it is a kernel problem. Chris Winne
