What version of automake are you using?  On what platform?

This config works fine for me on RH Linux 7.3:

autoconf (GNU Autoconf) 2.53
automake (GNU automake) 1.4-p5
ltmain.sh (GNU libtool) 1.4.2 (1.922.2.54 2001/09/11 03:33:37)

Try this:

$ make distclean
$ rm aclocal.m4 config.* configure saslauthd/aclocal.m4 saslauthd/config.* 
saslauthd/configure
$ sh SMakefile

This _should_ run clean except for the WARNINGs.
