OK.

For most components, I'd tend to agree that your
initial thinking was the "right" thinking, but looking
at the distros and the communities, automake seems
to have a compatibility model onto itself (if it indeed
has a model).

I'm fine with this.  Others may differ.  I just want to
be clear that I view this as an automake specific
decision and not a precedent to be followed.
