I've often thought that the directory layout supported by the GNU coding
standards (and by extension, autoconf and automake) was both incomplete
and constraining.

I discussed this with Richard years ago and was unable to convince him.

In the interim I have learned more and I now believe even what I was
originally suggesting would not be enough.

I'm also of the belief that whenever "significant" releases of autoconf
or automake are made, all FSF-distributed software should quickly adopt
these new release, if for no other reason than for the improved platform
support and consistent packaging/installation support.

But I digress...
