Ah, it seems the build system makes use of AX_APPEND_FLAG, but this
macro is not defined in the standard autoconf macros, but rather
requires you to install the autoconf-archive package. It is not a
problem when you download the tarball, because there it comes with a
pre-generated configure script.

I'll make sure to add a copy of that macro to tinc's git repository so
it's more self-contained.
