Let me guess: you have both autoconf2.13 and autoconf2.50 installed.
(are you running debian unstable?)

I've just had this problem with another project: it seems there's a script
which tries to guess which version of autoconf to use.  Unfortunately, it
gets misled by the existence of configure.in and tries to use autoconf2.13,
but with the macros from autoconf2.50, or something along those lines.  For
that project, I found that I could solve either by removing the
configure.in file (and just having configure.ac), or by explicity calling
autoconf2.50.

Unfortunately, I can't reproduce it now, and gstreamer works for me.
