With v1.16 this step is executed during `make dist` and using
`EXTRA_DIST` for that whole directory would also mean that _the built

`EXTRA_DIST` only goes so far. In my own project I use `dist-hook` to bundle up foreign subdirectories which I am too lazy to fully describe or which are too fluid to bake into Makefile.am. For example:

# Non-Automake subdirectories to distribute
DISTDIRS = locale scripts www PerlMagick TclMagick
dist-hook:
        ( \
          builddir=`pwd` ; \
          cd $(srcdir) && \
          ( \
            for dir in $(DISTDIRS) ; do \
              find $$dir -depth -print | egrep -v 
'(~$$)|(/\.hg)|(/\.#)|(/\.deps)|(\.pyc)' \
                | cpio -pdum $$builddir/$(distdir) 2> /dev/null ; \
            done \
          ) \
        )
