bootstrap error with --enable-maintainer-mode

bootstrap error with --enable-maintainer-mode

[Thomas Koenig]

Does this ring any bells?  This is with a recent trunk.

$ ../../gcc/trunk/configure --prefix=$HOME --enable-languages=c,fortran
--enable-maintainer-mode && make && make install

Which aclocal version do you have in PATH?  Looks like 1.10 or newer,
rather than 1.9.6.
