I think autotools has a concept of disallowing symlinks as it seems symlinks
can't be done in a portable way, and the goal of autotools is making
projects portable.
Well, if the autotools user feels like using symlinks, then it must be
expected to break portability wherever you take your autoc

How about sym linking the source file? Then you would only need a single
Makefile.am; you can use different flags depending on which source file you
compile.
While somewhat gross, it's not totally disgusting, and it should work to the
same effect...?

"Just" is probably not the right term, as it generally seems to
require more work to make a good non-r

Hey All,
Hi Shawn, sorry for the delay.
I'm working on ClamAV and am restructuring our autoconf/automake
scripts to be a bit more organized and modernized. On one machine, I
