The manual states that autoconf >= 2.58 is required so this is either a documentation or a code bug, probably the later. 5.0bk and 5.1bk are both affected so changing version to "5.0, 5.1" and category to "Server->Compiling"

Documentation snippet: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/installing-source-tree.html [...] 2. You need GNU make, autoconf 2.58 (or newer), automake 1.8.1, libtool 1.5, and m4 to run the next set of commands. [...]

Just a remark: bug#31803 was a bug of its own, an error in netware/Makefile.am which is not related to any autotools version / feature. I had closed it without filing a report for that, the fix is in current 5.1 and 6.0 already.

Presumably 2.52 now works, as bug#31803 is fixed. If it doesn't, feel free to reopen the bug, but don't forget to explain in details how exactly 2.53 "does not work".
