Back in the day there were two problems. First, automake's "dist" rule was not robust if there was a gap in the hierarchy. Second, autoconf wouldn't properly create intermediate directories in this same situation. I don't know whether either of these is still true today. The first one in particular has probably changed, I think I'm remembering our first "dist" implementation :-) Tom
