Hello Benoit,

Thanks for the report.

Is that a problem, rather than a mere inconvenience?  I don't see why
this should be required.  I suppose in that case we could add
  dist-hook: all

to the toplevel Makefile.am.  But since this applies to a fresh checkout
only and not to an extracted tarball (right?) I suppose there is no
need.

Cheers,
Ralf
