that's incorrect.  autoconf generates files ("configure" and "makefile.in" and 
others) such that autotools are not needed with a released tarball.  uninstall 
all autotools from your system, download the 0.10 release, and watch 
`./configure && make` work fine.  this is all by autotool-design.

if, however, you had a build system that fetched urjtag straight from svn/git, 
then autotools would be needed.
