Actually, in this case you could have avoided this particular bug by
using HP make. :-p
Automake still strives to be portable to non-GNU make, even if you have
decided to (understandably) not worry about the numerous and hideous
VPATH issues.

How nice, I just fixed a similar bug in makedepend mode last week.
I'm pushing this to maint (and merging to branch-1.11 and master) to fix
the above.
Thanks for the report,
Ralf
Fix hp depmode for VPATH builds with GNU make.
* lib/depcomp: Be sure to remove VPATH-prefixed object from
dependency output when creating stub rule.
* tests/depcomp10.test: New test.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Update.
* NEWS: Update.

Hi,
The dependencies mechanism of Automake leads to a compilation failure when
used in a VPATH build (with GNU make, of course) and HP-UX cc. The failure
occurs during the third command of this command sequence:
$ gmake
$ gmake clean
$ gmake
...
gmake[4]: Entering directory `/tmp/testdir1/build-vpath/gllib'
source='../../gllib/nonblocking.c' object='../../gllib/nonblocking.o' libtool=no \
DEPDIR=.deps depmode=hp /bin/sh ../../build-aux/depcomp \
cc -Ae -O -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I../../gllib -I.. -DGNULIB_STRICT_CHECKING=1 -g -c ../../gllib/nonblocking.c
cpp: "", line 0: error 4066: Cannot create "../../gllib/.deps/nonblocking.TPo" file for "-M../../gllib/.deps/nonblocking.TPo" option. (No such file or directory[errno=2])
gmake[4]: *** [../../gllib/nonblocking.o] Error 1

$ PATCH/11.00:PHCO_27774 Oct 3 2002 09:45:59 $
How to reproduce:
- Create a gnulib testdir for module 'nonblocking'.
$ ./gnulib-tool --create-testdir --dir=/tmp/testdir nonblocking
- Transport it to the HP-UX 11.00 machine.
- On this machine, start 'bash', then
$ export PATH=/opt/langtools/bin:$PATH
$ export CC="cc -Ae -O"
$ mkdir build-vpath
$ cd build-vpath
$ ../configure
$ gmake
$ gmake clean
$ gmake
In a build with $(builddir) = $(srcdir), there is no problem.
Bruno
