Thanks for the reply David, no luck I'm afraid.

To get make to work, I had to install & set up environment variables for  
autoconf, autoheader, unsermake myself based upon ./admin/cvs.sh so the  
versions were correct (2.59 for autoconf & autoheader, 0.4 for unsermake).

Tried removing autom4te.cache also, to no avail, still the same set of  
error messages when trying to compile aRts with "make -f Makefile.cvs":

======================================

The issues is I don't know what these things mean, and haven't been able  
to find anything on the error message at all <sigh>.

I've been at this for quite a number of days now, and is suspecting that  
it might be an environment variable or something which hasn't been set (in  
fact the only ones that I had set were:
export AUTOCONF=autoconf
export AUTOHEADER=autoheader
export AUTOMAKE=unsermake
)

Help. Anyone :(
