[avahi] avahi build problems

[Sebastien Estienne]

this issue seems specific to you or your distribution, because we (the
avahi dev) use autogen.sh almost exclusively and never encounter this
issue.

you should try to figure what is the difference between running
NOCONFIGURE=1 ./autogen.sh
and calling the autotools one by one.
As lennart said, that's basicallly what autogen.sh does.

You could try first to add the command that you run manually in a
script (autogen2.sh)
and test, then adding the content of autogen.sh to autogen2.sh till
you find that it breaks.
