I just went through that cycle of
- remove the DIE=1 and || exit 1 in the gtkdocize parts of autogen.sh
- s/automake-1.4/automake/ or any other fixed number in autogen.sh
- touch gtk-doc.make
- cp ../gtk-doc/gtk-doc.m4 .
- add m4_include([gtk-doc.m4]) to configure.in
to the various directories of glib, gtk+, pango, atk and I it has all
compiled nicely (with the patch below as thai-x.c needs HAVE_X from
config.h, and removing AC_CYGWIN AC_EXEEXT from glib's configure.in
as this is taken care of by AC_PROG_CC)

That would be an even nicer solution!
