Hi,
After having upgraded from automake-1.8.1 to automake-1.8.2 (And having
modified some Makefile.ams), I received this warning from automake:
configure.ac:16: version mismatch. This is Automake 1.8.2,
configure.ac:16: but the definition used by this AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE
configure.ac:16: comes from

I bet you have never tried to deploy this in the real world in an
environment with a useful number of heterogeneous OS installations running
at different OS rev levels.
In my experience this simply doesn't scale. Especially if it gets used in
somebody's shell RC files.

Slowly giving up.. autoconf cvs with Eric Sunshine's SHELL patch applied, but
maybe not propagated to all the executables involved, and automake
cvs of today, NetBSD-1.6ZG/i386, in the automake directory:
% sh bootstrap
Found no shell that has working shell functions.

If there was a version number in the Vendor field I'd be lots happier.
In the RH distros I've seen (and the config.guess output on those boxes) I
have still only seen "pc" for the Vendor field.

I think you are missing my point.
The information I am talking about is used for *runtime* decisions - very
likely in a script that is in a shared directory used by many different
architectures.
While it may be one possible implementation to run a configure script at
startup time, it quickly beco

I have the following in a Makefile.am:
if BUILD_SRC_BEOS_SUBDIR
d_beos = beos
endif
SUBDIRS = $(d_beos)
where BUILD_SRC_BEOS_SUBDIR is from an AM_CONDITIONAL in configure.in.
BUILD_SRC_BEOS_SUBDIR is not defined because I'm not building on BeOS.
The directory structure is

Agreed. But it is not a mechanism of automake. Nor should the
autotools support it since it embodies a diametrically opposed
philosophy from the one the autotool

This is a little more reasonable, since it allows to check for Linux with
a single test. But the fundamental problem remains: y

And rightly so ;-)
It fails two tests here on Solaris 9 - acloca14.test and conflnk3.test.

On one project, I have over 60 entries in AC_CONFIG_FILES that are
derived from Makefile.ams. This is getting to be irritating to
maintain. Is there any good reason why there isn't an
AM_CONFIG_MAKEFILES macro that computes a list of makefiles by
following SUBDIRS variables in the Makefile.ams, and
