Hi again,

I just realized my last bug report was simply caused by the -f option
passed to autoreconf.

Autoreconf seems to forward it to automake as the --force-missing option,
which, according to the manual, "force[s] update of standard files".

Autoreconf's man entry for -f simply states that it will "consider all
files obsolete", which for me wasn't very clear about its implications,
so I couldn't link it to the unwanted behavior I was experiencing.

That being said, it's all fixed now, thanks for the great software!

Cheers, Emil Laine <address@hidden>
