I can't reproduce this bug because I am not using RedHat.  The use of
autoconf/automake/CVS is not trivial; you should have noticed in the
logs you send with the a bug report that a lot of autoconf macros are
missing.  Please try again with a decent installation of these tools
and in case of problems ask here for advice.

There is a reason that we make tarballs available.

CVS versions are considered to be used by developers; so I see no
reason to file this as a bug.

Please use the lists.  I can't give you special treatment all the
time.
