Comment:

 We also see this problem on a buildbot machine:

 https://build.macports.org/builders/ports-
 12_x86_64-builder/builds/135523/steps/install-port/logs/stdio

 The problem was caused by [71bb5270228ad75683c9df728ea9a78e7c8d587a
 /macports-ports]. It applies a patch to Makefile.am (and other files) on
 older OS versions and adds automake and autoconf dependencies but does not
 actually run `autoreconf` as it needs to. Either patch Makefile.am and run
 `autoreconf` or patch Makefile.in and don't run `autoreconf`.
