FYI: some build fixes

[Alexandre Duret-Lutz]

I'm installing this, to fix some issues occurring in "build from
scratch" situations.

2006-08-19  Alexandre Duret-Lutz  <address@hidden>

        * Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Build lib first, for lib/Automake/Config.pm.
        * configure.ac (ACLOCAL): Use --acdir=m4 in addition to
        -I m4.  Running aclocal during the rebuild rules will fail
        if the default acdir does not exist.
