At any rate, it seems like maintaining ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS in Makefile.am is

If you do this, where will you specify the `--install` flag to
aclocal? Still in ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS?
I use 'autoreconf --install', which avoids needing to put --install in
ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS. But if --install is something that you have grown used
to sticking in ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS, then yes, it would probably be nice to
have a configure.ac counterpart that automake would understand to mean
automatic addition of --install even for plain 'autoreconf'.
