You are working with *developer* files as there hasn't been a 'release' 
So ... you will have to build it IAW general gnu autotools practice  :-)

http://vipe.technion.ac.il/~shlomif/lecture/Autotools/

or ..

just use the considerately provided script that does this for you

% ./autogen.sh

Note there will be a prebuilt configure in a release tarball
