Sure.  From the GNOME build experience, we needed these:

 - GNU m4 1.4
   currently available as /usr/sfw/bin/gm4
 - GNU make 3.80
   currently available as /usr/sfw/bin/gmake

Additions:

 - GNU automake 1.9.6
 - GNU autoconf 2.59
 - GNU libtool 1.5.20
 - GNU gettext 0.14.1
   (Note: gettext tools like xgettext and msgfmt only, not the library.)
 - GNU fileutils 4.1
   (Don't remember which tools exactly, "install" is definitely one of
   them, possibly the only one.) 
 - GNU flex 2.5.27
 - cvs 1.12.5
 - GNU bison-1.875
 - GNU diffutils 2.8.1
 - Apache ant 1.6.1
 - rsync 2.6.6
 - subversion 1.2.3

Newer versions may be available since.
