Thanks...

This starts to explain it...

I didn't install everthing in the same place
(libtool.m4 is in /usr/gnu/libtool/share/aclocal
lex.m4 is in /usr/gnu/automake-1.4/share/aclocal//lex.m4
gnome is in /usr/local/gnome

I wasn't aware these things were so interdependent...

What's the best way out of this mess?
