One way is to do a configure --prefix=/some/local/path and make install
the automake/autoconf/libtool. Then when you want to use the alternate
version, just "export PATH=/some/local/path:$PATH" before you begin. I'm
not sure if automake/autoconf/libtool installs any libraries, but if
they do you will also need some "export
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/some/local/path/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH" and "export
LD_RUN_PATH=/some/local/path/lib".

saludos,

Edscott
