Well, son-of-a-gun, that worked! Thanks!
Previously I would try to execute shell/rhythmbox and failing that I did
an actual install into /usr/local/bin and it still gave the error. Now
I'm just running from my build directory and everything works.
One more issue:
After running shell/rhythmbox, when I close it and try to open again I
get a segmentation fault (nothing written to stderr though).
But now, if I run my old rhythmbox (version 0.8), close it and then
rerun shell/rhythmbox, it works again (except, the playlist window now
has a new "Queue" playlist item which I can kind of understand as
rhythmbox 0.8 treats the queue as a normal playlist).

Something about AM_LIBTOOL (and various others) being underquoted.
I think my problem might be that I've got several versions of aclocal,
autoconf and automake installed.

In any case, thanks for the help.
