My old scripts for patching GCC sources didn't check a return code of patch,
autoconf, automake etc. At least autoconf-2.57 and automake-1.7.X failed for 
me. Currently I have put in a tests for return code, so script simply quits 
on error. I myself used autoconf-2.13 and automake-1.5.

If system has installed autconf-2.57 and automake 1.7.X (like I have under 
Linux), then I can install old versions under different prefix and put 
corresponding directory at the start of path.
