It's a bug in Autoconf 2.66.  There's a discussion with the title
"AC_CHECK_SIZEOF([int *]) is error in autoconf-2.66" on address@hidden

http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/autoconf/2010-07/threads.html#00005

There's a patch that fixes the problem.  Autoconf 2.67 is available in the
git repository, but not yet on the GNU ftp server.
