As long as you build on the machine where you ran autogen.sh this is no
problem. When you want to use everything on a second machine you should
use "make dist" and use the created classpath-VERSION.tar.gz on the
other machine. It includes all files directly and no symlinks. This way
you can use the latest autotools from fedora and build easily in your
Maemo-scratchbox environemnt.
