These are all quite old. There have been numerous bugs fixed in the
meantime. I would highly recommend upgrading to autoconf 2.63 and
automake 1.10.1 before ruling out bugs due to older tools. You probably
also need a newer m4 (autoconf 2.63 requires 1.4.5 or better; 1.4.12 is
the latest).

This is underquoted. You need to get in the habit of properly quoting
your arguments:
AC_ARG_ENABLE([purify],
[AS_HELP_STRING([--enable-purify], [build with Purify [default=no]]),
...
> [case "${enableval}" in
On the other hand, this is overkill; it is equally portable to say:
case $enableval in
> BUT, when I run my build purify is not being invoked at build time,
Unfortunately, I'm not too familiar with purify, so I will have to defer
to other list readers at this point.
