No, sorry.  Moreover, this is a part of Automake I don't know well
(nor even decently actually), and I won't have time to look into it anytime
soon.  And even when I'll have the time and the mental bandwidth, there is
more pressing stuff I'll have to deal with before.

In the meantime, does the workaround suggested by Ralf work for you?

Regards, and sorry not to be more helpful,

bug#14059: broken link in autotools doku (sent to gnu webmasters and autotools developers)

[Glenn Morris]

It seems you sent this bug report to bug-automake by bcc.
This confuses debbugs.gnu.org, which has no idea which package the
report should be associated with. Hence your message ended up on the
help-debbugs mailing list. I have assigned your report to automake, so
that this message and any future ones should go to the right list
(bug-automake).

bug#14079: Clarification.

[Mostafa]

To clarify, what is meant by absolute path in EXTRA_DIST is any path that 
starts with "$(abs_top_srcdir)" or "$(abs_srcdir)".
