When I run ./autogen.sh && make, I see this:
(this arose because I had the latest automake.git/master tools --
commit c1b83e1af60b866cf5cdeebf77d0275019bad8b2 from today --
early in my path)

That is because of this automake-generated rule:
undefine.log: undefine
@p='undefine'; \
b='undefine'; \
$(am__check_pre) $(LOG_DRIVER) --test-name "$$f" \
--log-file $$b.log --trs-file $$b.trs \
$(am__common_driver_flags) $(AM_LOG_DRIVER_FLAGS) $(LOG_DRIVER_FLAGS) -- $(LOG_COMPILE) \
"$$tst" $(AM_TESTS_FD_REDIRECT)
The trouble is that "undefine" is an operator in GNU make.
Here's that part of GNU make's documentation:
6.9 Undefining Variables
========================
If you want to clear a variable, setting its value to empty is usually
sufficient. Expanding such a variable will yield the same result (empty
string) regardless of whether it was set or not. However, if you are
using the `flavor' (*note Flavor Function::) and `origin' (*note Origin
Function::) functions, there is a difference between a variable that
was never set and a variable with an empty value. In such situations
you may want to use the `undefine' directive to make a variable appear
as if it was never set. For example:
foo := foo
bar = bar
undefine foo
undefine bar
$(info $(origin foo))
$(info $(flavor bar))
This example will print "undefined" for both variables.
If you want to undefine a command-line variable definition, you can
use the `override' directive together with `undefine', similar to how
this is done for variable definitions:
override undefine CFLAGS
The most pragmatic work-around is to rename the "undefine" test script.
However, Stephano, as automake maintainer, I think you will want to
fix automake not to prohibit the use of such test names.
