Since I've seen no further reports of similar problems, and since we have concluded the issue in question wasn't due to an Automake bug, but rather to a legitimate-but-slightly-backward-incompatible change in Automake's behaviour (change that I stupidly introduced in a minor version, rather than in a major version as it would have been appropriate -- sorry again about that), I'm closing this bug report. If anybody has further observations or objections, feel free to continue the discussion here; that should still be possible even if the bug has been closed. Thanks, Stefano
