Hi, I've noticed that the distdir variable in generated Makefile.in's only appears in the top-level Makefile.in, however, it is not set in subdirectories' Makefile.in's. Is this intentional? According to the top Makefile.in, distdir and top_distdir are passed down recursively during a "make distdir", set to $(PACKAGE)-$(VERSION) and subdirs. In one instance, I wished to manually inspect the result of one of the subdirectories' "make distdir", but had to pass in these two variables by hand, slightly inconvenient. Is there a rationale for omitting these two variables in subdir's Makefile.in's? Thanks in advance.
