autoreconf seems to be complaining about its own library files here. I can't explain why you'd get this for directory but not for other libraries. Do you have multiple versions of autoreconf installed (will probably be part of an autoconf or autotools package, or similar)? Is this problem repeatable?
Warnings like this can safely be ignored, you often get tons of them. At one point in time, the autoconf people decided to issue warnings for some things which have been documented as "don't do this", but it obviously takes ages until all packages obey these simple rules. The progreiserfs.m4 probably belongs to some badly maintained ReiserFS library which is installed on the system and gets included via arcane ways. Ugly, but nothing to worry about, as autoconf still does the same as before... Cheers, S.
