That's the problem with moving targets. Knowledge is always out
of date. As you know, I've been an automake customer for 4 or 5 years.
I confess I don't go back and recheck "is it working now" once
I have something working. I've moved on. If you have any recommendations
for autogen/doc/Makefile.am, I would cheerily be rid of some of that
uglitude. But my fear of pain won't allow me to go in and
clean up something that hobbles okay. :-) It was too hard
to get it and keep it working. Er, hobbling.
