Summary: autogen.sh error: possibly undefined macro: AC_PROG_LIBTOOL

Initial Comment:
All,

Downloaded quantlib 0.8.1 and get everything (examples and test-suited) compiled and run.

But I could not get autogen.sh work, here is the complete error message:
$ ./autogen.sh
configure.ac:63: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_PROG_LIBTOOL
      If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow.
      See the Autoconf documentation.
autoreconf: /ms/user/w/wguo/autoconf-2.61/bin/autoconf failed with exit status: 1

Run the command ./configure --help for information on options
that can change the behavior of the library.


The relevant information, automake(1.9.6)/autoconf(2.61)/libtool(1.5.22) as shown here:
$ automake --version
automake (GNU automake) 1.9.6

$ autoconf --version
autoconf (GNU Autoconf) 2.61

$ libtool --version
ltmain.sh (GNU libtool) 1.5.22 (1.1220.2.365 2005/12/18 22:14:06)


Anything I may miss?

Thanks a lot in advance!

aclocal does not find libtool.m4 (provided with libtool.)  See the
automake/aclocal manual for information on how to fix this.

However, if you're compiling the released tarball, you don't need to run
autogen at all. Just untar the archive and run ./configure.
