I just tried out the configure that is checked in... and everything seemed

However, a "make" produces:

CDPATH="${ZSH_VERSION+.}:" && cd . && /bin/sh
/Users/gastdr/projects/libmesh/build-aux/missing --run aclocal-1.12 -I m4
/Users/gastdr/projects/libmesh/build-aux/missing: line 51: aclocal-1.12:

WARNING: 'aclocal-1.12' is missing on your system.  You should only need it
if

         to install the Automake and Perl packages.  Grab them from
         any GNU archive site.
