Incidentally, the command referenced there:

/usr/sbin/alternatives --set automake /usr/bin/automake-1.4

never worked for me.  I just tried all permutations of automake again and
only /usr/bin/automake-1.9 is accepted.  All others give something like:

/usr/bin/automake-1.4 has not been configured as an alternative for
automake

I just manually mucked with the symbolic links in /etc/alternatives to get
past this since I didn't have time to figure out the real problem or the
right way.

Corrections welcome.
