Please upgrade automake, autoconf, gettext stuff to the reasonably latest ones. Or download source package which has configure generated. Or wait for the next aria2 version release which will be out in a few days.

No way sir. CentOS 5.9 is enterprise enviroment. we can not upgrade these dependency easily. we shall keep the old but stable libraries , we need stable enviroment.

Aira2 is faster than the CentOS default download tools wget.
we using aria2c to download files to our production enviroment. if we can let it easily compile under CentOS 5.9 and CentOS 6.x, we will using aria2 in each of our production enviroment.

Now aria2-1.17.0 was released. Use its tar ball, which does not require to invoke autoreconf things.
