Relying on these stable distributions generally means not wanting to mess with unstable development versions. Requiring a newer Automake version in Gnulib will only affect those. In the specific cases where people want to build/develop or install the latest version of a package using Gnulib on these distributions, requiring them to install a newer version of Automake or to bootstrap the tarball elsewhere is not a high requirement IMO.
