Your Automake/Autoconf installation is not an MSYS installation, but a
native Windows one, so it produces Windows CRLF EOLs, and that
confuses all kinds of scripts and/or utilities that are involved in
the configure process.  Or maybe some of the utilities invoked by
Automake/Autoconf are not MSYS utilities (check your PATH).

You can find Automake/Autoconf suitable for building Emacs on the
ezwinports site.

IOW, this is a cockpit error.
