I installed subversion and checked out anonymously.

Did the rules change somehow?
I don't think so. It works for me (but with separate build directory). Did
autogen.sh or configure spit out anything unusual?
Problem solved. When I run configure, I look up the previous config.log
and paste the command from there. Sometimes the config.log
contains the configure parameters --no-create --no-recursion.
I forgot to remove them, and that caused the problem.
(why are those parameters there? config.log claims this is the
incocation command line - but I never use those parameters myself.)
Re-running configure without those parameters fixed it.
The transition to subversion was nice, the checkout was much faster
than a cvs checkout. Faster than a cvs update, even.
