I thought this was from some file automake includes and didn't realize 
that it is the automake script itself. The linenumber is accurate:

sub substitute_ac_subst_variables
{
  my ($text) = @_;
  $text =~ s/\${([^ \t=:+{}]+)}/substitute_ac_subst_variables_worker 
($1)/ge;
  return $text;
}

The culprit is Perl from pkgsrc. Issuing

$ /usr/bin/perl <pkgsrcpath>/automake

generates the files without errors whereas

$ <pkgsrcpath>/bin/perl <pkgsrcpath>/automake

shows the behavior mentioned before.

Builtin Perl is v5.12.5, pkgsrc perl is v5.22.0.


But it seems this is not the root cause for the compile problems. 
Although there are some differences in the generated Makefile.in, the 
compile error (not finding cairo.h) remains and seems unrelated to these 
differences.
