I fail to see the problem there.
In _my_ am/distdir.am, there already are the correct statements.
They read as follows (from distdir.am:429)
## this case. However, make the top-level directory writable so we
## can make our new subdirs.
chmod -R a-w $(distdir)
chmod u+w $(distdir)
mkdir $(distdir)/_build $(distdir)/_inst
## Undo the write access.
chmod a-w $(distdir)
Still, 'make distcheck' fails.
