Comment (by me):

 {{{
 I see no problem with adding AM_MAINTAINER_MODE, but I think
 changing the behavior to not generate those rules by default will
 violate the expectations of those who are updating from the
 Mercurial repository.  If we did add this, it would need to be
 AM_MAINTAINER_MODE([enable]), and the Debian scripts would need to
 explicitly use the --disable-maintainer-mode option.  Would that
 be feasible?
