Just a follow up on this: I finally resolved this and as everyone knew/suspected it was not an autoconf/automake issue or at least I don't think it was unless there was something missed in update to update to update. I actually had the same autom4te error on 3 machines of which I either propagated the original problem from the Win2k machine (that had experienced corruption) to my WinXP (this I believe I propogated) and a Win95 (I didn't copy the tree or anything so not usre how this propogated) or there was something in the succession of updates.
At any rate I resolved the Win95 and WinXP through a full removal and reinstall of Cygwin and my build tree - just reinstalling all the packages and deleting/rebuilding my cvs build tree was insufficient. I knew I was home free when I got to the STL error as previously reported by Igor in cygwin-apps: http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-apps/2005-06/msg00159.html on either the WinXp and the Win95 machines. So I just thought I would close this out for the archives with a final resolution.
