Please never call autotools directly, instead use eautoreconf (or eautomake, and JUST THESE TWO) from autotools.eclass. If you have any reason why those don't work, please let me know to fix them.

Thanks,
Diego

only 5.5.6 has it active in there, and really it and all older versions of the package should be removed, but has depends elsewhere that prevent old versions being removed.
