I'm not exactly sure what the purpose of this is, but it doesn't look like portable code, so probably not something Automake should be generating. But don't let that stop you. You can add basically anything you'd like, including the above rules, to your project's Makefile.am and Automake will copy it through to the output. Cheers, Nick
