ansi2knr breaks dependency generation

[Robert Boehne]

I'm using CVS automake, autoconf & MLB libtool, but I found that
using these with g++/gcc (under AIX at least) will not work
if AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS=ansi2knr is set in Makefile.am.
The error is due to an underscore being appended to the libtool
object file name by automake,
source file:  FSD_Archive.cxx
Error: don't know how to make FSD_Archive_.lo

I'm not sure why, but adding ansi2knr causes the file to be
listed in the dependencies for the target as:
FSD_Archive$U.lo
even though it is C++, and shouldn't be affected.
I'm no automake guru, so I'm hoping to get a little help with this,
has anyone committed a supect patch that might do this?

Robert
