After finishing the update, during which automake-1.16.2 has been installed, I retried and the build finished.
Comment 1 William Throwe 2020-08-20 23:47:04 UTC
This is presumably caused by calling eautoreconf unconditionally but setting

> # Force users doing their own patches to install their own tools
> AUTOTOOLS_AUTO_DEPEND=no

The eautoreconf call used to be conditional on user patches being applied.
