I suspect the build is trying to rerun automake/etc during the normal
build procedure and it's complaining because the automake version has
changed since the original Makefile.ins were created by the upstream
author.

Instead of downgrading your automake, I'd try regenerating the
Makefile.ins/etc manually:

  make -f admin/Makefile.common cvs

Then do your configure, make, etc. again and hopefully it might work
this time.
