What about?:

From: /usr/share/doc/autotools-dev/README.Debian.gz
"Example autogen.sh and debian/rules files can be found in
/usr/share/doc/autotools-dev/examples.  Do not use them as-is. Rather,
properly customize your own."

and from /usr/share/doc/autotools-dev/examples/autogen.sh
" ...Still, this script is capable of cleaning
# just about any possible mess of autoconf files."

Cheers.
