No, there's only the single autom4te file (from autoconf).

What I meant was that on Solaris/blastwave there's only a single
option for which _automake_ (and also autoconf) to use:

$ pkg-get -c |grep automake
       automake 1.10.1,REV=2008.02.07 SAME

while on e.g. Debian there are more:

$ apt-cache search automake | grep ^automake|grep -v doc
automake - A tool for generating GNU Standards-compliant Makefiles
automake1.4 - A tool for generating GNU Standards-compliant Makefiles
automake1.7 - A tool for generating GNU Standards-compliant Makefiles
automake1.9 - A tool for generating GNU Standards-compliant Makefiles
automake1.8 - A tool for generating GNU Standards-compliant Makefiles
(the one without a version is 1.10.1)

No, it still fails the same way.
