i am not root, so i have to build rtorrent from source and hope to install it in my home directory, but failed, why?

[mirror@hugemeow rtorrent]$ ls

      If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow.
      See the Autoconf documentation.

though autoge failed, configure script is created.

[mirror@hugemeow rtorrent]$ ls

run configure, and fail for syntax error near unexpected token `1.9.6', what's wrong? what i should do in order to build this rtorrent for my centos?
