These are just warnings, if I get this right.
Couenne 0.5.8 is using a very old autoconf version, but there will not be any fixed to change this for Couenne 0.5.

Couenne master has been updated to use a more recent version and I hope these won't come up there.
A release from master could be made when Bonmin made a new release from its current master, which waits for release of Cbc 3.
