It should work whether Automake is used or not.

How about something like this?
@item
You will also need to invoke @command{autom4te} to generate the
testsuite, written as @samp{$(AUTOM4TE)} in the example below.
If you are using Automake, a good way to define it is to add this
to @file{configure.ac}:
@example
AM_MISSING_PROG([AUTOM4TE], [autom4te])
@end example
If you agree, then please free to commit that.
