I retrieved the latest ethereal 0.10.7 and tried building it, and
I get the following errors with automake-1.9.2:

Checking for python.
processing .
aclocal -I ./aclocal-fallback
aclocal:configure.in:13: warning: macro `AM_DISABLE_STATIC' not found in library
aclocal:configure.in:1195: warning: macro `AM_PROG_LIBTOOL' not found in library
Can't locate object method "path" via package "Request" at /usr/local/share/autoconf/Autom4te/C4che.pm line 69, <GEN1> line 308.
aclocal: autom4te failed with exit status: 1

I don't get these errors with automake-1.7.7
