I downloaded the latest gnutls, per the instructions at: http://www.gnu.org/software/gnutls/devel.html.  However, when I try running "make bootstrap" (per the instructions in README-ALPHA), I get:

[jdavies at localhost gnutls]$ make bootstrap
for f in lib/po/*.po.in; do \
                cp $f `echo $f | sed 's/.in//'`; \
        done
mv lib/build-aux/config.rpath lib/build-aux/config.rpath-
test -f ./configure || autoreconf --install

configure.ac:37: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_PROG_LIBTOOL
autoreconf: /usr/local/bin/autoconf failed with exit status: 1
make: *** [autoreconf] Error 1

I've upgrade autoconf and automake to 2.61 and 1.10.3 per the dependencies list.  If I download 2.8.6 from the FTP site, it builds correctly, and there aren't a heck of a lot of differences between configure.ac in 2.8.6 and the configure.ac that I'm trying to build above.

Any thoughts?  Thanks!
