Follow-up Comment #1:
The regex.c file is a persistent problem. See
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2004-10/msg00199.html
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2004-12/msg00122.html

In summary, I have tried several ways of solving this problem, including the
current strategy which is this:
##
## regex.c seems to get left out if I use automake-1.9 but not
## if I use automake-1.7. Hence dist-hook has to be able to
## copy regex.c into the relevant (read-only) directory if it
## is not already there, but needs to avoid doing so if the
## file is already in place. Ugh.

jy-regex-fix:
if test -f $(distdir)/gnulib/lib/regex.c ; then \
echo regex.c is already in place. Great. ; \
else \
echo Making $(distdir)/gnulib/lib writable ... ; \
chmod +w $(distdir)/gnulib/lib ; \
echo Copying $(srcdir)/gnulib/lib/regex.c to
$(distdir)/gnulib/lib ; \
cp $(srcdir)/gnulib/lib/regex.c $(distdir)/gnulib/lib/regex.c
;
\
fi
# ls -ld $(srcdir)/gnulib/lib/regex.c $(distdir)/gnulib/lib
I have modified the toplevel Makefile.am to remove regex.c from
CONFIG_CLEAN_FILES (see attached patch). Please test this fix to make sure
you're happy with it, either by applying the patch or by testing the CVS
code, and let me know how you get on.
Goodnight,
James.
