According to James Youngman on 2/19/2008 4:53 AM:
| GNUmakefile exists in $(top_srcdir) but not the build directory.
| Distcheck does "make distcheck-hook". That's defined in the Makefile
| (from $(top_srcdir)/Makefile.am):-
Shouldn't it be possible for bootstrap and/or configure to create a
symlink to GNUMakefile in the build dir that points back to the source
dir, if the two directories are not the same? Would this symlink
adequately supply all the needed definitions for a distcheck in a VPATH build?
