No way. It wasn't in the old build system - and is in the new. YOU were
the one who was trying to take away a feature (multiple simultaneous builds
with different METHODS) that *everyone* was (and had been for a long time
and still is) actually using to get features *you* wanted with Automake.
All we did was complain (in the same way you are now when I suggested we
remove build system features) that something we use everyday was going away.
I will agree that what we ended up with was a compromise that isn't the
best. I'm not saying we try to fix it within the current build system...
but it is something I would like to fix in a new one.
