You need to install the intltool package (which esp. includes
intltool.m4 for AC_PROG_INTLTOOL). If you have intltool installed, but
AC_PROG_INTLTOOL is still not found, search for intltool.m4 and add the
directory where the file is found to ACLOCAL_FLAGS, i.e.

 export ACLOCAL_FLAGS="-I <the-directory $ACLOCAL_FLAGS"
