True if you are a developer and have the right Autoconf and Automake
versions installed; wrong if you are an innocent user that just found
a buglet and, for the first time, adventures for a fix, and doesn't
have those versions readily installed. Yes, if no matching automake
is found, then there'll only be warnings, no hard failure, but still
inconvenient.

If it disturbs Paul, I'd guess it could disturb others as well.
I could undo that change, the effect would still be the intended
one: have Makefile.in's with updated time stamps checked in. :)
Cheers,
Ralf
