Building latest git source in a non-src directory on

I made it a prereq of doc/constants.texi
That seems a little hacky, for what seems like an automake
bug.
Maybe this one is the culprit?
http://git.sv.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=automake.git;a=commit;h=v1.11-328-ge87c030
I use automake-1.11.6 and the coreutils configured min
version is 1.11.2.
Specifically I'm not impacted as I have this in Makefile:
$(srcdir)/doc/version.texi: $(srcdir)/doc/stamp-vti
$(srcdir)/doc/stamp-vti: doc/coreutils.texi
$(top_srcdir)/configure
test -f doc/$(am__dirstamp) ||
$(MAKE) $(AM_MAKEFLAGS) doc/$(am__dirstamp)
...
BTW, Steffano, how can I see what release the above commit
is included in? Only minor versions seem to be tagged?
I dislike dependency creep so am open to a workaround
as long as we know what's going on.
> You're probably right about the mkdir doc hack - I think I added it based on
a similar rule for another subdir
Zartaj also mentioned to me he's using automake 1.12.5 and autoconf 2.69
thanks,
Pádraig.
