My package implements this with a patch to the appropriate Makefile.am. If I supplied every Makefile.in file, the patchfile would be enormous, as automake will generate new and different ones based on my automake command. More compatible, perhaps, but harder to maintain. (Sigh) Yes, I could add -fno-eh-cleanup as a general CXXFLAG, but, I have no idea what the flag does... Thus, it is only used when compiling libBASE.a I'm using fink supplied versions of automake-1.5, autoconf-2.13.
