The subjects says it all, basically.

In section "3.3 The Uniform Naming Scheme" I read:

 ``The current primary names are ‘PROGRAMS’, ‘LIBRARIES’, ‘LISP’,
   ‘PYTHON’, ‘JAVA’, ‘SCRIPTS’, ‘DATA’, ‘HEADERS’, ‘MANS’, and
   ‘TEXINFOS’. Some primaries also allow additional prefixes that
   control other aspects of automake's behavior. ...''

Shouldn't `LTLIBRARIES' be listed here too?  Or am I missing
something?

Regards,
  Stefano

Yes.  The obvious patch is preapproved.
