From: Selva Nair <selva.n...@gmail.com> - Eliminates repeated warnings such as warning: source file '$(openvpn_srcdir)/env_set.c' is in a subdirectory, but option 'subdir-objects' is disabled - Enabled only for automake >= 1.16 as older versions have a buggy implementation of this option
Main side effect of this option is that object files like openvpnserv-blockdns.o are now created in src/openvpn where block-dns.c resides instead of in src/openvpnserv. Same for object files for sources from $(openvpn_srcdir) compiled into test executables.
