The package from Fedora's EPEL 6 has this in the build section:

autoreconf -i
%configure \
   [...]

In the build system for RHEL6 this works fine. However , in the 
environment created for RHEL5, it barfs:

Sep 27 00:11:51 <wolfy> configure.in:100: error: possibly undefined 
macro: AC_C_FLEXIBLE_ARRAY_MEMBER
Sep 27 00:11:51 <wolfy>       If this token and others are legitimate, 
please use m4_pattern_allow.
Sep 27 00:11:51 <wolfy>       See the Autoconf documentation.
Sep 27 00:11:51 <wolfy> configure.in:101: error: possibly undefined 
macro: AC_C_VARARRAYS
Sep 27 00:11:51 <wolfy> configure.in:111: error: possibly undefined 
macro: AC_TYPE_LONG_DOUBLE
Sep 27 00:11:51 <wolfy> configure.in:112: error: possibly undefined 
macro: AC_TYPE_LONG_LONG_INT
Sep 27 00:11:51 <wolfy> autoreconf: /usr/bin/autoconf failed with exit 
status: 1

My knowledge about using autoconf fluctuates between nil and close to 
zero so I just tried tossing in a call to aclocal before using 
autoreconf, but it failed as well:

    + aclocal
    configure.in:683: warning: AC_LIBTOOL_SETUP was called before
    AC_DISABLE_STATIC
    /usr/share/aclocal/libtool.m4:1997: AC_DISABLE_STATIC is expanded
    from...
    configure.in:683: the top level
    + autoreconf -i
    You should update your `aclocal.m4' by running aclocal.
    libtoolize: `config.guess' exists: use `--force' to overwrite
    libtoolize: `config.sub' exists: use `--force' to overwrite
    libtoolize: `ltmain.sh' exists: use `--force' to overwrite
    configure.in:100: error: possibly undefined macro:
    AC_C_FLEXIBLE_ARRAY_MEMBER
           If this token and others are legitimate, please use
    m4_pattern_allow.
           See the Autoconf documentation.
    configure.in:101: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_C_VARARRAYS
    configure.in:111: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_TYPE_LONG_DOUBLE
    configure.in:112: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_TYPE_LONG_LONG_INT
    autoreconf: /usr/bin/autoconf failed with exit status: 1



  At which point I went back to regular $DAYJOB and postponed reading 
the autoconf docs till I'd have more time or a kind soul provided the 
correct recipe, whichever comes first.
