I added this:

AUTOMAKE=/opt/automake-1.11.1/bin/automake-1.11 
--warnings=no-portability

Possibly it doesn't work correctly with FreeBSD's sh? (You could maybe 
change the shebang to bash?)

I changed the top to 

#!/usr/local/bin/bash

but ... still no luck.  

I will post a bug report with output from everything I can think of 
later tonight.  I wouldn't bother, except that FreeBSD is a pretty 
important target, besides my current OS of choice.

Tx!
