Thanks, but there are several problems:
  * Your pbuilder environment is not clean, so you were not able
    to build packages which Build-Conflicts any flavour of automake,
    like gtoaster.
  * Due to this unclean environment, bugs are somewhat hidden because
    the aclocal command is the one you selected by alternatives, and
    may be different from the one specified in Build-Depends{,-Indep};
    for instance I do not see how your patch in #386072 can work, since
    you modify lines after aclocal is called, and this is this command
    which fails.
  * You did not rebuild packages which Build-Depends-Indep: gettext

It would IMO be nice to rebuild packages in a clean environment; I put
the list of packages at http://people.debian.org/~barbier/tmp/gettext.list
if someone can rebuild these packages.

Yes it seems that there are very few bugs, this is good news.
Did you file bugs for all the failures you found?
Thanks.
