I found a message in the automake list that states that
out-of-tree builds only work for GNU make:
        http://sourceware.org/ml/automake/2001-01/msg00073.html

The message could be out-of-date or just wrong, I suppose.

If you have time to deal with it, please do so.  I am planning to
"fix" those files, but realistically it'll be a while before I
have time to do so.
