Yes, it fails in my CI as well:
aclocal -I gnulib/m4 && autoconf && autoheader && automake
(cd tp/Texinfo/XS && libtoolize && aclocal -I gnulib/m4 && autoconf &&
autoheader && automake)
libtoolize: putting auxiliary files in '.'.
libtoolize: linking file './ltmain.sh'
libtoolize: putting macros in AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIRS, 'gnulib/m4'.

Fixed through the attached patch.
More precisely, fixed through the second part of the attached patch.
The first part serves the purpose of updating the same files also
in the build-aux/ directory, so that you don't risk distributing
outdated files for 6 years any more :) But it assumes that the
main contributors are all on the same Automake version, otherwise
one guy gets differences, commits them, and then the other contributor
gets the reverse differences.
