(autogen.sh calls autoreconf which calls automake to add the files)

Well, there's nothing to be done about it now. Any new make rule would
only take effect after running configure, and anyone who can run
configure does not need such a rule. Anyone would ran autogen.sh between
~ Mar 20 and 25 should simply run it again if they have this issue.
