Hello,
   Attached is my test-log for automake 1.14.1 which sports an alarming
   number of failures despite having upgraded my system's m4 and
   autoconf just fine to their newest versions.

It seems something went horribly wrong with your build.  Can you
reproduce the issue in a clean build?  If yes, can you describe
the exact step you took to get such a build?

Thanks,
  Stefano

Hi Stefano,
    I'd literally run this command sequence inside the sources folder:

    CC="gcc -m64" CFLAGS="-O2" ./configure --prefix=/usr
    make && make check

    This was having just literally downloaded automake from the Kent mirror, and decompressed it.
    the build itself went just fine, but as you can see, make check threw fits.
