Sorry for the delay.

There is no problem for me ( = I can't reproduce the problem).
BUT I have to 'sudo make install', else the install fails due to permission 
problems.

So, I can just guess...

Please retry with
sudo make install

If the above fails, try:
make clean
git pull
./bootstrap
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/wget-1.16
make
make check
sudo make install

If it still fails, maybe your auto* packages is broken / buggy ?
Do you have the same problem with other projects or not ?
