We need more details - are you trying to compile libvirt.git (if so,
what commit are you on), or a tarball (and if so, where did you download
the tarball from)?  What platform are you on?  What versions of automake
and autoconf do you have installed?  Unless I can reproduce the failure,
I can't do much to help debug it.

Since gnulib/lib/Makefile.am exists, I have to wonder if this might be a
problem with your version of automake, but without knowing your version
of automake, I can't be positive.
