Does the problem resolve itself if you change:

     [AS_IF([test "x$XCONFIGURE" != "xandroid" \
             && test "$with_android" = "no"],
       [(movemail --version) >/dev/null 2>&1 || with_mailutils=no],


to read

     [AS_IF([test "x$XCONFIGURE" != "xandroid"],
       [(movemail --version) >/dev/null 2>&1 || with_mailutils=no],

?
