Ok... you found the problem - no autoconf or automake present. I must have 
missed them on my last OS install .. it's a pity the error wasn't a bit more 
obvious.
Sorry to waste your time .. at least I can rework the xattr patch against git 
now.
cheers

Differs here.  Next test:

$ which autom4te
/usr/bin/autom4te
$ rpm -qf `which autom4te`
autoconf-2.69-14.fc20.noarch

$ echo 'm4_pushdef([m4_assert])
m4_pushdef([m4_fatal])
m4_pushdef([m4_warn])
m4_pushdef([m4_errprintn])
m4_pushdef([m4_exit])
m4_pushdef([m4_include])
m4_pushdef([m4_esyscmd])
m4_define([AM_GNU_GETTEXT],[])
m4_define([AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION],[])' | \
 autom4te --debug --verbose --no-cache \
 --language=Autoconf-without-aclocal-m4 \
 --trace=AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION':$%' - configure.ac

That output will include something like:

autom4te: formatting traces for `/tmp/am4twMnHut/warnings': _m4_warn

In that temp directory are several files; show me:

$ tail /tmp/am4twMnHuT/traces.0
m4trace:configure.ac:184: -1- m4_pattern_allow([^CLOSEDIR_VOID$])
m4trace:configure.ac:189: -1- m4_pattern_allow([^HAVE_GETMNTENT$])
m4trace:configure.ac:190: -1- m4_pattern_allow([^HAVE_GETMNTENT$])
m4trace:configure.ac:200: -1- m4_pattern_allow([^HAVE_SETGROUPS$])
m4trace:configure.ac:225: -1- AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION([0.18.1])

m4trace:configure.ac:237: -1- m4_pattern_allow([^FAKETIME$])
