./configure: line 14409: syntax error near unexpected token `0.9.6,'

[edwin-919]

I downloaded barnyard2-2-1.9.tar.gz, but found no configure file there, so I've used autoscan, aclocal, autoheader, autoconf, automake to created a configure file finally. However after I runned
./configure --with-mysql --with-mysql-libraries=/usr/lib64/mysql,
it shows

./configure: line 14409: syntax error near unexpected token `0.9.6,'
./configure: line 14409: `    AM_PATH_LIBPRELUDE(0.9.6, use_prelude="yes", use_prelude="no")'

it's there any problem in the configure file? any support would be very grateful.
