<pre>Trying to build on Arch Linux (using Automake 1.14, Autoconf 2.69), I get the
following error during 'make install' (full log attached):
Making install in doc
make[1]: Entering directory
`/home/miki/pkg/abs/extra/libxcb/src/libxcb-1.9.1/doc'
make[2]: Entering directory

make[2]: Nothing to be done for `install-exec-am'.

make[2]: *** [install-data-local] Error 127
make[2]: Leaving directory

make: *** [install-recursive] Error 1
After some searching and experimenting, I have found that reordering the
initialization of Automake in configure.ac (see attached patch) resolves the
issue (and also removes a warning about a missing or too old 'missing' file.</pre>
