automake 1.5

[Douglas J Hunley]

trying to install this beast, and make test fails on 'dirname.test'
any ideas? there's no error message. it just says 'FAIL: dirname.test'
I've got the latest autoconf, m4, and make installed. the 'make' works fine. 
should I just 'make install' the damn thing anyway?
