Using autoreconf in GNU distributed tarballs is not guaranteed to work.
Please see:
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=30051
If exact .m4 files with aclocal macros would be part of the dist tarball it would be possible to use autoreconf.
Please have a look for example on coreutils.

What is BTS in this context?
