Close but no cigar. It was using the right version of aclocal.
After much searching, the problem is the new software version were in
a "local" directory which was okay. But, the system libtool was
okay, and it's ACLOCAL libs were in a different directory. After
installing a newer version, with the the other software, the files
had what I needed.

Now back to the regularly scheduled program.
