mcabber @0.9.10: Automake error during configure

Reported by: eddie@… Owned by: simon@…
Priority: Normal Milestone:
Component: ports Version: 2.1.2
Keywords: Cc: ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)
Port: mcabber

Description

When trying to build mcabber, the install fails at the configuration stage leaving a log behind. The relevant error appears to be: 

:info:configure aclocal.m4:16: warning: this file was generated for autoconf 2.64.
:info:configure You have another version of autoconf.  It may work, but is not guaranteed to.
:info:configure If you have problems, you may need to regenerate the build system entirely.
:info:configure To do so, use the procedure documented by the package, typically `autoreconf'.
:info:configure aclocal.m4:16: warning: this file was generated for autoconf 2.64.
:info:configure You have another version of autoconf.  It may work, but is not guaranteed to.
:info:configure If you have problems, you may need to regenerate the build system entirely.
:info:configure To do so, use the procedure documented by the package, typically `autoreconf'.
:info:configure configure.ac:6: error: version mismatch.  This is Automake 1.13.1,
:info:configure configure.ac:6: but the definition used by this AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE
:info:configure configure.ac:6: comes from Automake 1.11.  You should recreate
:info:configure configure.ac:6: aclocal.m4 with aclocal and run automake again.

I definitely have the latest version of autoconf installed through MacPorts, so I'm not sure why this is happening. That said, I know next to nothing about autotools, so I don't really know what issues to look for.
