Not quite what you asked, but I just add this to my top-level Makefile.am:

sign:
        gpg --detach-sign $(distdir).tar.gz
        md5sum $(distdir).tar.gz | gpg --clearsign > $(distdir).tar.gz.md5sum

Then you make dist and/or distcheck as normal, and when you're ready
to release, make sign.

I don't see any particular reason why this is worth including in
automake. It's trivial and will probably vary per project anyway.
