That's the cause.  Automake cannot currently cope with non-literals in
source file names.  I've tried before to eliminate this unfortunate
limitation (at least for the 'depfiles' config.status commands); maybe
I should dig that out again sometime.  But for now, that's what you'd
need to undo to avoid this bug.
