the check works. if the warning message can be more clear will be
better.
firstly, i only have automake-1.4. so it warn me about that. then i
installed automake-1.6. then it still warns me, i found that default
automake in system is still 1.4. so i modify system symlink to 1.6, then
i got that error.
later while wait reply from list, i check the autogen.sh and saw that i
can specify version in shell, so i modified that and works. the reason
is that though i change one symlink in system, there are other stuff
like aclocal also need new version, so i got a version mismatch here.
