That appears to get set by AC_INIT.  Not sure why it should be different 
for you.  What versions of automake and autoconf are you using?
my automake --version is 1.6.3
my autoconf --version is 2.5.7

According to the info page for automake, you must have an obsolete 
version of automake or autoconf since the package name and version are 
set by the AC_INIT macro and the AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE macro inherits those 
values from it.  Sounds like it can't hurt to use the obsolete options 
but one has to make sure now that AC_INIT and AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE are 
*both* updated each time the version number changes -- see the comment a 
few lines higher in configure.ac about "SET VERSION HERE!"

Did the AC_PREREQ test succeed or did you get an error message during 
bootstrap.sh?

So it will work and it's not a Linux version issue so much as an 
automake version issue.
