Does it say exactly this or did you introduce typos here?

This is very strange. What kind of OS / version do you use? These should
be in /usr/share/aclocal by default. Since they obviously aren't, I'm
attaching them to this mail. Stuff them in m4/ and try to compile again.
They should probably be distributed along with freeciv, and should be
committed to cvs too.

I've tested compilation (with patch and --disable-nls and
--enable-client=no) on my Debian testing box, on Cygwin under Windows XP,
and on a RedHat box. All three work flawlessly with the new patch.

But compilation of the client on a RedHat box gives me massive amount of
errors like this (for many different functions and files):

tilespec.o: In function `tilespec_setup_government':
/home/homeb/pe/permath/freeciv/client/tilespec.c:801: multiple definition
of `tilespec_setup_government'

Any idea for that one?

Yours,
