Libast installs a libast.m4 file for some extra macros to extend autotools. Eterm uses the macros in that file in it's configure.in. By default autotools is installed in /usr, so it uses /usr/share/aclocal to hold it's m4 files. Since libast is getting installed in /usr/local, it installs its m4 file relative to that path too, so /usr/local/share/aclocal, but this isn't a location /usr/bin/aclocal looks in by default. The export ACLOCAL_FLAGS="-I /usr/local/share/aclocal" tells aclocal to also look in that directory for m4 files it needs to include in it's macro definitions. Hope that clears it up.
