http://www.gnu.org/software/automake/manual/html_mono/automake.html "AC_OUTPUT([Makefile doc/Makefile intl/Makefile po/Makefile.in \ src/Makefile tests/Makefile tests/hello], [chmod +x tests/hello])" ... "Since automake appears in the AC_OUTPUT macro, a target for it is automatically generated, and it is also automatically cleaned (despite the fact it's a script)." ===== Those are two places in the above referenced document where it could do with an update.
