Do you have "coreutils-default" installed? The build system has some 
weird hand-crafted make rules that cause some rerunning of autotools 
for no reason, so I 'touch' some files to try to trick that (but I 
didn't test whether coreutils's 'touch' behaves oddly). Do you have 
fink's "make" package installed? I could envision that it also causes 
different behavior (I didn't test *without* it installed) due to some 
weird timestamps in the tarball. I hacked just enough to get it to 
build reliably for me at all (which also allowed scrapping am19 and 
such), but quite possibly it needs more makefile-hacking and/or de-novo 
autotools generation to get it self-consistent.
