automake 1.7.x and later require autoconf-2.54 or newer. Ordinarily,
the wrapper scripts in the cygwin autotools suite ensure that "matching"
versions are called -- unless your installation is not fully uptodate.
Make sure you have both
autoconf-devel-2.54-...
automake-1.7.1-....
installed, and check to see if your configure.[in|ac] file has an
'AC_PREREQ(x.xx)' line in it.
