Thanks to PhathonH for the reply to my previous post. I got myself hooked to the CVS as recommended and have a whole new set of problems. I did upgrade my autoconf and automake to the latest.
The autoconfig.txt in the doc/ dir seems to be confused. It's telling me to make a new dir in THIS dir which is doc/. I figure it's a typo and do it in /blender
Anyway. I run bootstrap and get a whole list of something like
--------
Running aclocal ...
Running automake --gnu --add-missing...
intern/Makefile.am:4: Libtool library used but `LIBTOOL' is undefined.
intern/Makefile.am:4: The usual way to define `LIBTOOL' is to add `AC_PROG_LIBTOOL'
intern/Makefile.am:4: to `configure.ac' and run `aclocal' and `autoconf' again.
intern/bmfont/Makefile.am:1: Libtool library used but `LIBTOOL' is undefined.
ect......... forever for most all Make files
Then it runs
Running autoconf ...
configure.ac:23: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_PROG_LIBTOOL
If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow.
See the Autoconf documentation.
---------
Took a look at configure.ac and AC_PROG_LIBTOOL is in there, but I take it that the macro itself sin't defined. Is this something I'm supposed to do?
Spend a couple of hours struggling thru Autoconf.info ( I hate info) and never did find m4_pattern_allow and how to use it. Probably won't help anyway.

libtoolize(1)
Only thing I can think of is to run libtoolize before running aclocal.
The other is making sure the newer autoconf/automake binaries are actually running (check with --version).
