Re: How to speed up 'automake'
Unrelated to Jan's depend.am change, but it turns out that a previous change broke make distcheck (768 failures). I don't feel right about committing anything else until that is fixed. Error below. Jim (or anyone), can you easily advise? I haven't delved into this part of things before. (Not sure how many of the failures are due to these errors, but I suspect most.) --thanks,karl.

Re: How to speed up 'automake'
Fancy doing it? Jim agreed :) Yeah, sorry. Other priority things have intervened :(. I have a mild hope of getting to it by tomorrow. If someone else wants to make the commit, certainly fine by me :). -k
