* automake.in (generate_makefile): Define that variable to "yes" if the
Makefile being currently generated is in the top-level directory, define
it to the empty string otherwise.  This offers a way (alternative to the
'%?TOPDIR_P%' transform) to determine whether a recipe is being executed
in the top-level directory or not.
