Hm, that's really strange. The definition should be in
/usr/share/aclocal/wxwin.m4 which should be part of wx-common.
I don't know what else might be wrong beside the automake version...
Can you check, that /usr/share/aclocal/wxwin.m4 really is present
on your system and contains some sensible content? Not sure what we
can do to debug this, other then straceing bootstrap (urgs).
Well, for now I have generated a distribution tarball[1] of some
recent svn version. You should be able to compile it without running
bootstrap. At some point we should look into this problem or ask
for help on the ubuntu bug tracker...
