It is not necessary to specify top_builddir because that is where the

Sorry, I thought we were dealing with a Makefile.am in a subdir, in other
words, a Makefile.am for which top_builddir does not equal `.'.
Ahhh, I see. Apparently some people still do that. In this case your
advice is good advice.
