I don't think the "AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE" error is the problem.
The problem was that aclocal failed before this, because the libtool and
gtk-- macros couldn't be found.

(With automake/autoconf once one thing fails you tend to get a lot of
errors following it. The first error message is usually the real culprit.)
