Can't compile ARTS 1.0 (from KDE 3.0)

[Clarence Dang]

Hi,

I'm trying to do this for the purposes of creating and testing a binary 
package of KolourPaint against KDE 3.0.

$ autoconf --version
autoconf (GNU Autoconf) 2.59

$ automake --version
automake (GNU automake) 1.9.5

$ svn info
Path: .
URL: svn://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/tags/arts/1.0/arts
Repository UUID: 283d02a7-25f6-0310-bc7c-ecb5cbfe19da
Revision: 436597

"make -f Makefile.cvs" fails with:

~~~~
configure.in:750: error: m4_popdef: undefined macro: AC_Dest
autoconf/status.m4:848: AC_CONFIG_FILES is expanded from...
configure.in:750: the top level
autom4te: /usr/bin/m4 failed with exit status: 1
aclocal: autom4te failed with exit status: 1
make[1]: *** [cvs] Error 1
make: *** [all] Error 2
~~~~

This error seems quite popular google-wise but I can't find a solution.  Does 
anyone here have a solution?

The complete output of of "make -f Makefile.cvs" follows:

~~~~
$ make -f Makefile.cvs
This Makefile is only for the CVS repository
This will be deleted before making the distribution

!!! If you get recursion errors from autoconf, it is advisable to set the
    environment variable M4 to something including "--nesting-limit=500"
