More questions.  Is autoconf really broken, i.e. someone has actually
filed a bug report, or is xfce perhaps relying on some undocumented
feature that won't ever be supported again?  The reason I ask is this.
 I install new versions of other packages that use autoconf/automake
quite regularly, and no other installs seem to be failing.

I don't need to go looking for RPMs.  Gentoo has any level you want
available for install.  Currently autoconf 2.52d is what's considered
stable.  Both 2.52i and 2.53 are available but considered unstable.

It would be nice if you could tell me exactly what the error is so
that I can file a bug report; otherwise xfce installs will be failing
left and right on gentoo.
