I modified the top level Makefile thus:

          && test -f xml2ag/Makefile \
          && $(MAKE) $(AM_MAKEFLAGS) \
          && test -f xml2ag/Makefile \
          && $(MAKE) $(AM_MAKEFLAGS) dvi \
          && test -f xml2ag/Makefile \
          && $(MAKE) $(AM_MAKEFLAGS) check \
          && test -f xml2ag/Makefile \
          && $(MAKE) $(AM_MAKEFLAGS) install \
          && test -f xml2ag/Makefile \
          && $(MAKE) $(AM_MAKEFLAGS) installcheck \
          && test -f xml2ag/Makefile \
          && $(MAKE) $(AM_MAKEFLAGS) uninstall \
          && test -f xml2ag/Makefile \
          && $(MAKE) $(AM_MAKEFLAGS) distuninstallcheck_dir="$$dc_install_base" 
\
                distuninstallcheck \
          && test -f xml2ag/Makefile \

and determined that "installcheck" is the step that clobbers xml2ag/Makefile.

Is this a known problem or do I need to investigate further?

Thank you.
