Try the following (untested):

SRC = 01_InvalidByte.txt      \
      02_CorruptedMsg.txt     \
      03_InvalidByte.txt      \
      04_InvalidByteAscii.txt \
      05_BufferOverrun.txt

BIN = $(SRC:.txt=.bin)
CLEANFILES = $(BIN)
EXTRA_DIST = $(SRC) pxxd.pl

all-local: $(BIN)

# When we 'make' we create generate the bin files
SUFFIXES = .txt .bin
.txt.bin: 
        perl pxxd.pl $< $@

If you want to generate the bin files only at 'make check' time, then
you can use the 'check-local' target instead of the 'all-local' one.

Hope that helps.  If it doesn't, then please post the output you get
from the failing 'make' command.

Cheers,
Ralf
