Well, I can't make anything out of it - it doesn't find any of the autoconf macros. How
did you install the other dune modules? Did you download a tar ball, or did you check
them out from subversion? In the former case, it might be possible that you lack some of
the additional software required to build Dune modules from subversion (autoconf et al.).

If that doesn't help, I'm unfortunately stumped. In that case, I can only refer to our local
buildsystem guru Christian.
