Yes, you were right, in texinfo-4.7 the files rebuilt, though they were
distributed.
``make distcheck'' wasn't able to catch the problem, since all generated
files were listed in BUILT_SOURCES, and thus removed by distclean.
The example I posted wouldn't probably pass the distcheck.
(Current CVS version is happy again, as it doesn't distribute these files.)

Sure, this was a silly mistake. But anyway, you can see that I was heading
towards the solution contained in the automake manual (as Alexandre has
pointed out).
A fixed version of your interm.test is attached.
Have a nice day,
