My bad, I forgot to remove `dir' from the _DATA var.

Still, there is something which is still unclear to me.  Are we
referring to some new feature of Automake?  I think I am consistent
with 1.4, or I miss something.

mybindir = $(bindir)/my
mybin_DATA = doto

/tmp % am --version                                                   2:08 remo
