Flameeyes: "I've added a QA warning to autotools.eclass so that now using its functions outside of src_unpack throws is reported to the users (and thus to the developers to fix it). I'm filing bugs for the packages I can easily find being doing this through a simple grep on the tree. If you fixed the issue in the last version of an ebuild and I still opened this bug, please don't close it until you removed that ebuild from the tree. Thanks for the cooperation."
And what's the problem with calling autotools outside src_unpack()?
it's wrong ... autotools are not a compile step, they're a source-prepare (and thus unpack) step.
All fixed now.
