MacOS Build Busted

[bpalmer7440]

When building from appneta-tcpreplay-v4.4.1-1-g09f0774.tar.gz on macOS Monterey 12.0.1 I get the following error when trying to generate configure:
%$ ./autogen.sh
autoheader: error: error: AC_CONFIG_HEADERS not found in configure.ac

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. download appneta-tcpreplay-v4.4.1-1-g09f0774.tar.gz from http://tcpreplay.appneta.com/wiki/installation.html#downloads onto a system with MacOS Monterey 12.0.1
2. %$ tar -xvzf appneta-tcpreplay-v4.4.1-1-g09f0774.tar.gz
3. %$ cd appneta-tcpreplay-09f0774
4. %$ ./autogen.sh
   autoheader: error: error: AC_CONFIG_HEADERS not found in configure.ac

I expect to get a message similar to the one I get on my Ubuntu 18.04.05 VM:
~/appneta-tcpreplay-09f0774$ ./autogen.sh
libtoolize: putting auxiliary files in AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR, 'config'.

configure.ac:165: installing 'config/install-sh'

System (please complete the following information):

• OS: macOS
• OS version: Monterey 12.0.1
• Tcpreplay Version [e.g. 4.3.2] 4.4.1 (as evidenced by Ubuntu build from same tarball)

Additional context
Add any other context about the problem here.

autoheader --version -> 2.71
autoconf --version -> 2.7.1
aclocal --version -> 1.16.5
autogen --version -> 5.18.16

As per instructions on download page, just run ...

./configure
make
sudo make install

The autogen.sh is for build machines that have many prereq libraries and tools installed. It generates the configure script. For distributions, the configure script is already generated, so there is no need to run autogen.sh.

There is no configure script included in the latest release. It is missing.
