[netcdfgroup] Error trying to build netcdf 3.6.2 on CentOS/Red Hat 5

Hi,
I am trying to build netcdf 3.6.2 on both a Red Hat 5 64 bit platform,
and on a CentOS 32 bit system. The configure runs fine, but when I try
to do the "make" I get the following errors:

$ make
 cd .
&& /bin/sh /perforce/stgagg/DATARC/thirdparty/netcdf/rel/netcdf-3.6.2/missing 
--run automake-1.9 --foreign

make: *** [Makefile.in] Error 1


I have checked within the Makefile, and its aborting on the ./missing
--run automake-1.9 assignment. I can reproduce the errors by simply
typing automake in the same directory as where I did the make command.
I've googled for help, but can't seem to find anything addressing this.
Can someone help? 

Thanks,
Doug
