OK, fortunately I did some more tests before sending the message.
I'm writing this *after* having found the problem, but I plan to send
the message nonetheless: it could always help people that has the same
problem, in the future, and finds this searching the archives...
The solution was: autoconf updated, autom4te directory created and
populated by old directory, new autoconf probably sues a sligthly
different formats (and doesn't automatically detect the version change
itself) -> the cache cannot be loaded correctly and creates weird
problems.
aka:
$ rm -rf autom4te.cache

Mhh....
$ autoreconf -f -i
(just in case)
$ ./configure
