I had to do autoreconf -I m4 --force. The point, though, is that configure should not complete successfully if the Makefiles that it generates cannot be used to make Emacs, due to a missing aclocal.m4 or whatever other reason. Nor should configure produce a set of Makefiles that causes `make' to infloop. That's a bug.
