On my CygWin system I have both a stable and a devel version of the
autotools installed. I also remember this was the case on some Linux
flavor. Best thing to do is to check whether you have multiple
versions of those; experiment with an older version.

You can now select which autotools you want to use by setting the
appropriate directory first in the path or by setting the appropriate
shell variables when running autogen.sh (read this shell script for
knwing which variables).

Good luck!
