That's right, I apologize. It is really related to the way I hack
automake. I don't understand it too well, and often have to read many
different sites before understanding some chunks. This is why
although I do make efforts to split my patches as much as possible,
they sometimes go wild.

In the present case anyway it couldn't be just rearrangement, as
merging two routines together imply some tuning (mostly alpha
conversion :).
