If it's become unusable it's probably because of my massive changes to
the top level build system; give me a pointer to your patch and I'll see
what needs to be done to adapt it.

That project would be me. :-) I'm not planning on putting anything else
under the control of automake; I have serious practical and
philosophical differences with it over the way it misuses
'make'. My Makefile rewrites may eventually lead to me writing a
replacement or substitute for automake, however!
