Your error is presumably caused by the two expansions of
AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE in your configure.ac.  There should be just one,
so instead of

  AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE([foreign 1.16])
  # To enable non recursive automake
  AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE([subdir-objects])

try:

  AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE([foreign subdir-objects 1.16])

Strictly speaking I would say there is an Automake bug here: the
diagnostic message was certainly not very useful!

Hope that helps,
