 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.
