Yes, that is intentional. The documentation for automake says:
The intermediate files generated by `yacc' (or `lex') will be
included in any distribution that is made. That way the user doesn't
need to have `yacc' or `lex'.
Note that if the source files are modified then the automake generated
makefile will attempt to regenerate those generated files. But
normally in a distribution image the user would not be required to
have yacc or lex (bison or flex) installed because the generated files
already exist. Only the C compiler would be required.
