There was a bug in m4/header.m4 (AM_CONFIG_HEADER) which was causing
configure & config.status to create a $(top_builddir)/stamp-h file for
every header file instead of the $(top_builddir)/$(subdir)/stamp-h$index
file it was supposed to create. Basically, a few shell metachars which
were supposed to be interpreted in config.status were being interpreted
in configure instead and leaving blank spots in config.status. The
stamp files were still being created in the correct places in the
Makefile.ins & Makefiles, so it wasn't a fatal bug, but I fixed it
anyway.
