Exact same error here, on macOS 10.13.6 (High Sierra)

Ah, this worked for me!

  1. install the latest autoreconf-archive package
  2. in the repo toplevel, run autoreconf -i
  3. cd build/ and try ../configure again

On GNU/Linux, for instance being in simple-mtpfs' toplevel:

  1. Download GNU Autoconf Archive
    $ git clone git://github.com/autoconf-archive/autoconf-archive
  2. Move GNU Autoconf Archive's m4 directory to simple-mtpfs' toplevel
    $ mv autoconf-archive/m4 .
  3. Run autoreconf -i
  4. Run cd build/ and ../configure
