having problems porting newlib

[kr651129]

I'm porting newlib per the wiki and I'm running into an error that I can't figure out.

After I run autoreconf in newlib/libc/sys/myos I get the following error

Code: Select all

configure:2323: error: possibly undefined macro: _AM_DEPENDENCIES
      If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow.
      See the Autoconf documentation.

Has anyone else had this problem?

What are your versions of autoconf, automake, libtool, and m4, respectively?

Does anything in there strike you as odd?

Like this perhaps?

Your automake is ancient; you might want to upgrade.

Sorry for the slow reply, I've been out of town. I know that my version print outs aren't GNU but I am using the wrapper ports for those tools so they should be working for me..
