I think you've missed the second part of my conversation with
Werner...  Reference:

  <http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=14685>

Oh, but I see that's because Werner's report has been sent to both
the automake and bug-automake lists, causing some confusion.  Well,
now that I've added the above link the dicussion on the bug tracker,
the confusion should be cleared, and the situation for potential
thread-diggers from the feature should be improved :-)

So, let's continue the discussion on the bug tracker only from now
on, OK?

Thanks,
  Stefano
