Subject: Fwd: header file from yacc doesn't go to a distribution (automake
	1.11)
Date: Wed, 12 Jan 2011 12:21:19 +0300

Package isn't enclosed because otherwise the message doesn't get through.

> Finally had time to make some tests, and now i've got it:)
>
> When i set AM_YFLAGS to -dt it doesn't distribute a header, probably
> because it's searching for -d to be alone.
> When i set AM_YFLAGS = -d -t, it works.
>
> A small test package enclosed.
