Please, if you make such a statement, include more details: whether you
know of an Automake version where this used to work, or have code
examples where it did (including a pointer to the code), or have just
tried the sample code from the PR.  If you don't have more details, then
please also state so; even stating some guess is better than not
providing any data at all.  With just the above, it is hard to judge.

Thank you,
Ralf
