To get passed the gettext problem, I changed configure.ac like so:

AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION([0.17])
#AM_PROG_AR
m4_pattern_allow([AM_PROG_AR], [AM_PROG_AR])

Next, when I run ./configure --prefix=..., I get:

./configure: line 8834: PKG_PROG_PKG_CONFIG: command not found
./configure: line 8846: syntax error near unexpected token `GUILE,'
./configure: line 8846: `   PKG_CHECK_MODULES(GUILE, guile-2.0, 
have_guile=yes,'

I also tried --with-guile=no but that did not work. I have pkg-config 
0.28 in my path.
