The problem I'm trying to solve is 
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-3041 - 'make dist' does not package 
.NET Binding source.

When I add the sources to a Makefile.am then I get a packaging error from tar: 
file name too long.
I can see several solutions:

1. Rename or move the source files. This would be tedious and not a great long 
term solution.

2. Use a different version of tar. Support for 256 character file names has 
been around for a while and would satisfy the name length problem. However, I 
don't take changing the tar format lightly.

3. Tar/zip the .NET Binding sources and package the resulting tar.gz file 
instead of the individual files. I tend to favor this approach.

Any ideas or opinions?
