[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
The automake manual says:

AC_REQUIRE_AUX_FILE
  For each AC_REQUIRE_AUX_FILE([file]), automake will ensure that file
  exists in the aux directory, and will complain otherwise. It will also
  automatically distribute the file.

But the last sentence is incorrect (see attached test case).

Regards,
  Stefano
