It looks like you reran autoconf on a system where it doesn't support 
including a directory for m4 files (it should have spit out some nasty 
warnings at you).  The AC_SF_COMPILER_SETUP autoconf macro is 
precompiled into the configure script distributed with the DAQ tarball 
and defined in m4/sf.m4 for when you need to recompile configure from 
configure.ac.  In short, if you run the configure that comes with the 
DAQ tarball you should not encounter this error.
