The problem here is that make spawn external shell commands for these,
one per line. So, it spawns off one shell which runs "cd ${WRKSRC}",
which works, but then that shell exits, so the second command runs in
another shell invocation in the current directory. You need to put
them together in a single invocation like:
pre-configure:
(cd ${WRKSRC} && aclocal${USE_AUTOMAKE_VER})
That way they both run sequentially in a single shell, and the aclocal
runs in the right dir.
