Well, not really an error message, but a debug message. If you run with -d,
then just before it tries to run autoheader, there should be an explanation
of which dependency it thinks is out-of-date. You can then examine the
timestamps of the files involved and 'touch' as necessary.
Still don't see why you'd have to do this, though, if you're using the original
nmh-1.0.2.tar.gz from mhost.com. (I could see it if you were using CVS
source or were using a .tar file you had re-created after doing local
configuration.)

You could always check the timestamp on it. You might also see which make
your path is pointing to (e.g. GNU make in /usr/local/bin or vendor make in
/usr/bin).
And as I said previously, installation of GNU autoconf
(<ftp://ftp.gnu.org/autoconf/>) isn't difficult and will also solve your
build problem.
