You don't need a newer version of automake. Leave the system autoconf
alone; install the latest stable autoconf in /usr/local from a release
tarfile; and make sure /usr/local/bin is at the front of your PATH when
building Emacs. If ultra-paranoid, install autoconf in a non-standard
location that is not normally in your PATH, but only when you build
Emacs.

Thank you. I am humbled by my lack of thought.
