Weird. I don't know too much about Autotools but I guess it wants to see 
AM_PROG_AR to be placed, for example on line 9 in configure.ac just 
before AC_PROG_CC_C99. I never got this error here (Automake 1.11.6) and 
I don't really understand since I'm not building any static libraries (I 
thought I even explicitly disabled them in configure.ac:6 with 
"disable-static").

If you happen to know the cause and/or don't mind taking a minute, could 
you open an Issue on the Github project 
(https://github.com/codebrainz/code-format/issues) and I'll see if I can 
figure out what's happening there shortly.

Thanks,
