$ autoconf

configure.ac:9: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE
      If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow.
      See the Autoconf documentation.
configure.ac:15: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_LIBTOOL_WIN32_DLL
configure.ac:17: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_PROG_LIBTOOL
configure.ac:37: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_DEFINE
configure.ac:72: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_CONDITIONAL
configure.ac:102: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_MSG_ERROR
configure.ac:111: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_DEFINE_DIR
configure.ac:118: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_CHECK_HEADERS
configure.ac:133: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_CHECK_LIB
configure.ac:699: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_ICONV

------------------------

The fix is found at: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1258673

$ sudo pacman -S pkg-config xorg-server-devel libtool automake
$ libtoolize --force

Consider adding AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR([m4]) to configure.ac
and re-run libtoolize --force.

$ vim configure.ac
$ libtoolize --force
$ aclocal
$ autoheader
$ automake --force-missing --add-missing
$ autoconf

I don't know how to include this in the build script.
