Very unlikely.
There are people using the new features, like Jim Mayering, the
coreutils maintainer, and others. Building checkouts or even
tarballs of their projects on F9 might be a problem.
However, this upgrade may break rebuilding some of the packages whose
packagers refuse to accept that running the autotools during builts is
harmful.
But this is not too likely either. Only a minority of Fedora
packages does run autotools in their spec files.
Anyway, the changes between automake-1.10 and automake-1.11 have
been comparatively harmless.
Thank you for saying that. (Yes, I know this statment does not mean
you support the updates and I do not intend to imply that.)
