It isn't mucking up something := ${shell ... } - that was my imagination - it just reordered it. It did however affect the include. I solved this with a disgusting hack, which was essentially as follows.
In configure.in: FOOINCLUDE=include AC_SUBST(FOOINCLUDE) then in Makefile.am: @FOOINCLUDE@ file/to/include I'm sure there must be a less foul way to do this. Any ideas?
