Am trying .. in the meantime I think the best I will see is : 

============================================================================
Testsuite summary for GNU Automake 1.12.2
============================================================================
# TOTAL: 2730
# PASS:  2459
# SKIP:  217
# XFAIL: 50
# FAIL:  4
# XPASS: 0
# ERROR: 0
============================================================================

So I am giving up on automake for now. However there is a bug or flaw in there somewhere however I don't know where. I was able to build plenty of other packages and even get the latest Apache and apr/apu built and running fine. 

So my thoughts are that I can do little until I have a decent bootstrap of GCC 4.7.1 and that won't happen quickly.  Getting away from Sun/Oracle Studio tools is the best advice here. Just avoid them. 

I am stuck with what I get in automake for at least a few days until I can come back to this.
