I'm also on a Centos5 system, with the same problem.  It ships with
automake 1.9.6, and autoconf 2.59.

This incantation works well for me (so far), and implies that there is
*NOT* a requirement for automake 1.10.:

        svn update
        aclocal 
        automake -a -c
        autoconf
        autoreconf --force --install --symlink
        ./configure --with-pcre --with-tokyocabinet --without-sql 
--with-graphviz

I've had zero problems so far.

Now, I've a need to go find a large wooden plank on which to knock...
