Changes (by jdemeyer):

  * status:  needs_review => needs_work


Comment:

 Your changes could run into timestamp troubles, when the timestamp of the
 `Makefile.am` file is more recent than the `Makefile.in` file. This might
 cause `automake` to be run and should be avoided. Since "am" comes
 alphabetically before "in", you will not actually run into this problem,
 but it seems fragile to rely on that.

 A standard solution that I have used for several packages is to create 1
 patch file which patches both the `.am` and the `.in` file '''in that
 order'''. `patch` applies patches in order of the patch file.
