Hi,
I have received patches similar to the one below for several of my
projects already, and I'm beginning to think there may be something that
could be improved in automake. Why does automake 1.12 need something
that 1.11 doesn't even recognize? Perhaps a smoother way to introduce
this behaviou

Oops! Here is a patch against automake, we can sync it to gnupload once
this has been applied.
