This is all rather strange.  Needless to say, I use autoconf 2.52 and
do not get these strange errors.  With autoconf 2.52 and automake 1.4s
I usually re-generate all the files with "aclocal -I cf; autoheader;
automake; autoconf"

Did you run autoreconf or autoconf manually when you got that error?

_AS_TR_SH_PREPARE is defined in share/autoconf/m4sh.m4 in my
installation.  Could you verify that there's nothing strange about
your autoconf installation, for example, by running `make check' ?
