I have some common source files that I have to compile and link
several times in different contexts. Actually the Makefile.am
files look more like this:

        hello_SOURCES = \
                $(INTERFACE_DIR)/common_interface.c \
                $(INTERFACE_DIR)/common_interface.h \
                localfile1.c \
                localfile2.c \
                :
        hello_CPPFLAGS = -D$(INTERFACE_FLAG) -I$(INTERFACE_DIR)
        hello_CCFLAGS = -some -flags

There are several Makefile.am files of this kind (>50).
