Well, quoting in this context has always been accepted and perhaps even preferred, it's only tools that used to be more forgiving, so the patch doesn't rely on any particular version of automake. But 1.9 has been released, so you may have a look whether it suits you; otherwise 1.8.5 is probably a reasonable fall-back. Newer versions of autotools tend to work better with less common or newer platforms, e.g. the "mips64el-linux" alias has only recently started being recognized correctly. It usually requires a complete replacement of helper files with `libtoolize --automake --copy --force; automake --add-missing --copy --force', though.
