The problem is when configure calls

/export/home/drkirkby/sage-4.6.2.rc0/spkg/build/cddlib-094f.p8/src/
missing --run automake-1.11 --gnu

if automake were not installed, then "missing" would emulate it. This
means that it would touch the Makefile.in's, as if automake would have
run.

Since you have automake installed, the real automake is being called.
But your automake install is broken, it requires autoconf. Then your
automake dies, and configure fails.

I would say that this is the expected behavior. You need either a
working automake install or none at all, either is fine. The only
constraint is that it must not be broken.
