First know that you don't need Automake to build ABINIT. It is only useful
for developers. You just have to type:

./configure [options...] && make && make install

If this is what you do, such an error may come from the use of a remote NFS
file system with a clock skew, i.e. the new files are created with a date and
time which are before the ones of the old files. In such a case, you should
type:

find . -exec touch {} \;

from the top ABINIT source dir before running configure.

The available binary packages are listed on the following webpage:

http://www.abinit.org/package/?text=summary

I'm not aware of any Mac/Intel binary for ABINIT 5.3, though.

Best regards,

Yann.
