See the Autoconf documentation.
autoreconf: /sw/bin/autoconf-2.59 failed with exit status: 1
Could you quote the exact command you issued to invoke autoreconf. I think that you should use ./autogen.sh
Could you check that you have a working aclocal. Try
Code:
$ which aclocal
/sw/bin/aclocal
$ aclocal --version
aclocal (GNU automake) 1.9.4

You may find that you have aclocal automake and friends in /usr/bin. If so these are the Apple ones. The XaraLX build process needs later versions. The best way of installing these is from fink. You will also need to have the PATH environment variable set correctly, videlicet:
Code:
$ set | grep PA
INFOPATH=/sw/share/info:/sw/info:/usr/share/info
MANPATH=/sw/share/man:/usr/share/man:/usr/local/share/man:/usr/X11R6/man:/sw/lib/perl5/5.8.6/man:/sw/lib/perl5-core/5.8.1/man:/sw/lib/perl5/5.8.1/man
PATH=/sw/bin:/sw/sbin:/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/X11R6/bin
