I realized that that was totally insufficient to solve the problem.
Could you try the attached patch and the configure script?

Please never run the older version of autoconf, e.g. v2.59.  You'd
better copy the attached configure script, and perform `chmod +x'
and `touch' on it (so as to make it newer than aclocal.m4 and
configure.in).
