I'm sure this is not the answer, but it compiled and installed by commenting
out this line in the ebuild:

#       emake -j1 -f admin/Makefile.common || die "reautotooling failed"

assign to maintainer...

I have the same problem and Comment #1 is accurate.

Created an attachment (id=99307) [edit]
Patch which resolves the issue by allowing detection of automake versions 1.8
and 1.9

After spending some time looking at the problem, it seems like the problem is
that the 1.7.9 version of automake doesn't define the macros in question.  This
patch changes the ebuild to allow it to use automake 1.9 or 1.8.  With this,
everything compiles happily.

Fixed now by updating the KDE admin/ dir.
Thanks for reporting.
