Thanks for the reply.  By checking the latest automake out of CVS, adding this line to 
Makefile.am

AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS = subdir-objects

and copying the file "compile" from the automake distribution to the src directory, it 
seems to work now.  I hope this is the correct way to do it when the next major 
version is released.

Again thanks for your help.
