nobase_include_HEADERS = sig/functor.hxx sig/sigslot.hxx
SUFFIXES = .m4
sig/functor.hxx: sig/functor.hxx.m4
m4 $(srcdir)/sig/functor.hxx.m4 > sig/functor.m4
[ also for sigslot.hxx ]
This isn't perfect since you must arrange for mkdir sig somehow.
Automake doesn't do this automatically in this situation.

As above.
Suffix rules don't work if the files are in subdirs.
Suffix rule support in automake could use some enhancements.

Not that I know of.
