Thank you; your suggestion appears to work perfectly.
I hadn't realized the name of the autogenerated file was under my control
in this way. Perhaps a future revision of the autotools might incorporate
the underlying logic (to avoid generating files with multiple dots in the
filename) in the interest of portability. Alas, I do not (yet?) have the
autotools expertise to propose a patch to do this.
Nonetheless, I do appreciate your kind assistance. Now I have only three
questions remaining :) Thank you again.
