I've just found a couple of stupid typos in the last version of the

Compared to the total time of make dist its IMHO
acceptable. But configurability won't hurt of course.

is reasonable?
I didn't make any testing, but the report came from the observation
that result was +300kb on 9 mb. The compression was slow, but
decompression is not affected.

AC_OUTPUT(src/app/Makefile, src/Random/Makefile, Makefile)
If you want to pass two or more files to AC_OUTPUT, you must separate
them by white spaces, not by commas. Otherwise, only the first one is
considered (in this case only `src/app/Makefile'), which is hardly what
you want.

Are you assuming 'make dist' after 'make' or 'make dist' from scratch?
Other than the time spent compressing data, 'make dist' after 'make'
should be quite fast.
Yep, I mean the make dist from the scratch; i.e. what one usually
does when creating new release. The compression is used very

The same can be said about currently used -9 for lzma, no?
Yes. The argument is that it should be possible to optionally set the
compression level. In most cases, the compression default should be the
tool's compression default.
I have no problem with such solution.
