Attempting to make a new Binutils port

Hello,

I've started a new Binutils port for a custom processor that I am
designing.  I've started with the `bfd` directory.

To do this, I need to modify the `Makefile.am` file, followed by running
`automake` version 1.15.1.  I had to run `aclocal` 1.15.1 first before I
could run `automake`.

I get this warning upon trying to run `aclocal`

configure.ac:163: warning: macro 'AM_BINUTILS_WARNINGS' not found in library
configure.ac:193: warning: macro 'AM_PO_SUBDIRS' not found in library
configure.ac:279: warning: macro 'AM_ZLIB' not found in library

Upon running `autoconf`, which is necessary due to adding a new
architecture to `configure.ac`, I get these errors.

configure.ac:36: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_DISABLE_SHARED
      If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow.
      See the Autoconf documentation.
configure.ac:163: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_BINUTILS_WARNINGS
configure.ac:193: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_PO_SUBDIRS
configure.ac:279: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_ZLIB

Can someone help me resolve this?

Thanks
