Do you know which version this "old autoconf" was? Currently I've installed:

ii  autoconf       2.59a-3        automatic configure script builder
ii  autoconf2.13   2.13-54        automatic configure script builder
ii  automake1.4    1.4-p6-9       A tool for generating GNU
ii  libtool1.4     1.4.3-21       Generic library support script

Autoconf 2.59 is a debian dependency, I cannot install 2.13 without 2.59, however calling 'autoconf' always calls 2.13 .

    There we go. That sucks since it should call the 'latest'.
    And only explicitly saying 'autoconf2.13' should call the old.

    So blame gentoo (yuck :).

Can you provide the version numbers you're using for successful php-gtk compilatin (or Andrei) ?

    autoconf 2.13 (the phpize part of the buildconf)
    autoconf 2.59 (for the rebuild part)
    automake 1.9.2 (for aclocal part)

    It works as fine with not setting PHP_AUTOCONF too..for you it's
    not gonna help. autoconf should point to the latest..
