This is good to hear.  But what gives me a headache every time I think
about it (thus, brain exploding) is:  how is this supposed to work in the
general case?  Is it just a situation of, "automake-generated installation,
separate objdir, non-GNU make.  Picking any two rules out the third."

Not really germaine to v3, just blathering aloud.
