I found the answer just recently: the package is not compatible with
versions of automake later than 1.4p5. However, it will build fine
without automake; I temporarily uninstalled automake and reinstalled it
after xcircuit was built.
I have informed the maintainer about this problem, so hopefully the
.info file will be updated soon.
