not really trivial. So, I would write a separate shell script
that does everything needed properly and invoke that from the
Makefile. It's much easier, in my opinion, to write nontrivial
bits of shell in separate scripts than to try to maintain them
inside a Makefile.

include that in each of your Makefile.ams. Personally I prefer
the latter. One sometimes-nice advantage is that modifying the
include file requires only rerunning Automake, which is faster
than rerunning Autoconf and Automake.

I was hoping for some feedback on this proposed patch
that some vendors have apparently not updated their C compilers
in that long.

This seems to me more in keeping with the Autoconf philosophy.

Does cscope offer enough additional functionality over, say,
Exuberant Ctags or gtags, to warrant being supported? Do many people
use it?
The most useful feature of cscope that is not in *tags (as far as
I know) is that it maintains a list of
any replies.

In order to use this option with C sources, you should add

Of course, when my source files are C++ files the _CFLAGS extension does
nothing. Changing this to _CPPFLAGS fixed the problem. Duh.
You know that CPPFLAGS is for the C preprocessor and CXXFLAGS is
for the C++ compiler, right?
