Good catch! Isn't quoting fun?

When a substitution variable FOO contains the string @FOO@, config.status
runs forever. Example:
$ cat configure.ac
AC_INIT
FOO='@FOO@'
AC_SUBST(FOO)
AC_CONFIG_FILES(Makefile)
AC_OUTPUT
$ cat Makefile.in
FOO = @FOO@
$ ./configure
configure: creating ./config.status
config.status: creating Makefi

Thanks to all people who have send patches and bug reports here is
another beta for Automake 1.7.
Again, please SHOUT LOUD if your package works with Automake 1.6.3 but
doesn't with 1.6f. Incompatibilities are best fixed before the release.
Please report any issue by mail to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

I've been using plain Makefiles for a long time, and I'm a great
believer
