With a hint from #debian-devel i found the pre -1.1 source package of
avifile:

http://snapshot.debian.net/archive/2004/05/31/debian/pool/main/a/avifile/avifile_0.7.38.20030710-1.tar.gz

the interesting parts of the diff:

diff -r avifile-0.7.38.20030710-1/autogen.sh
avifile-0.7.38.20030710-1.1/autogen.sh

I tried to rebuild the packages from the source package. But something
with the autoconf stuff was borked and i was lost in some autoconf
builddependency version of hell :) This seems to be the reason for
forcing deprecated versions of autoconf and automake. I'll try to
rebuild the packages in a clean chroot environment.
