... but possibly way different versions of the autotools compared to
those the package was built with, back then.

Possible.  Automake may have changed in that regard, at some point.
Still that would constitut, if not a flat-out bug, at least severe
bit-rot in the upstream package, because if it doesn't work with
Cygwin's automake version 1.15, it most likely doesn't with reasonably
current versions of automake on other platforms, either.

I rather doubt that.
