I might get back to you with a solution to your problem, but in the
meantime I would warn you about using that outdated manual for learning
autotools. I would recommend you to take a look at the following
resources in the future:
Autotools tutorial by Alexandre Duret-Lutz:
http://www.lrde.epita.fr/~adl/autotools.html
Another reference by Diego Elio “Flameeyes” Pettenò:
http://www.flameeyes.eu/autotools-mythbuster/
The first articles of John Calcote which later got published in a book
by OReilly:
http://www.freesoftwaremagazine.com/books/autotools_a_guide_to_autoconf_automake_libtool
Now that I think about it, you will get faster and better answers in the
automake mailing list.
