automake creates a bunch of system-dependent soft-links:

depcomp -> /usr/share/automake-1.7/depcomp*
install-sh -> /usr/share/automake-1.7/install-sh*
missing -> /usr/share/automake-1.7/missing*
mkinstalldirs -> /usr/share/automake-1.7/mkinstalldirs*

When I ./configure on another machine those links are broken.

SCoTT. :)
