I'm sorry, but the bug seems to be yours. The new test fails after
automake.in changes from revision 1.848 to 1.849.
revision 1.849
date: 2001/02/04 03:27:52; author: tromey; state: Exp; lines: +27 -11
* automake.in (handle_configure): Don't modify variable which
aliases list element. Don't push @inputs onto the dist list.
Fixes colon7.test.
(initialize_per_input) [dist_dirs]: New variable.
(handle_dist_worker): Use global dist_dirs.
(handle_configure): Set dist_dirs entries at toplevel.
In fact it says directly: "Don't push @inputs onto the dist list."
Not good. Many programs rely on that.
