Yes. This is a very old decision I made for automake (prompted, as I recall, and as so many things were, by François Pinard). The idea is that in some situations you want to override the generated code with your own. So we try to let you do this. It is not something we recommend; usually when one does it, it is to work around some automake deficiency. Tom
