Thank you Ralf. But, if I got this right, I'll have to add this rule (or it's recursive targets) in all my Makefile.in files (I am using a recursive Makefile structure, unfortunately as you say). Won't these changes be discarded if I re-run automake? Since this project is still under heavy develomment, I sometimes have to make changes at the autotools level.
