Hi Thomas, thanks for getting back to me. Had a quick try, but sadly configure 
stops in the same place:

cd /usr/pkgsrc/security/motion/work/motion-release-3.4.1 && autoreconf -fiv
autoreconf: Entering directory `.'
autoreconf: configure.ac: not using Gettext
autoreconf: configure.ac: not using aclocal

autoreconf: running: /usr/pkg/bin/autoheader --force

autoreconf: configure.ac: not using Automake
