I decided to use: 
ftp://ftp.pbone.net/mirror/ftp.sourceforge.net/pub/sourceforge/h/hp/hphp/CentOS%205%2064bit/RPM/autoconf-2.63-3.noarch.rpm

which required me to build m4 with a version > 1.4.7 (because I couldn't 
find such an m4 version around).

Therefore, I used: 
https://oss.oracle.com/el5/SRPMS/m4-1.4.5-3.el5.1.src.rpm with source 
for v1.4.9 (from: ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/m4/) and I built 
m4-1.4.9-1.el5.1.x86_64.rpm

After that, I was able to build Dovecot 2.2 successfully on CentOS 5.

Nevertheless, I had a bunch of warnings from autoconf, which I copy 
below, in case someone can suggest how to avoid them.

Thanks and regards,
Nick
