problem with conditionals and \ separator in SOURCES

[Lorenzo Bettini]

Hi

        In configure.in I have these lines

AC_PATH_PROGS(GENGETOPT, gengetopt)
AM_CONDITIONAL(NO_GENGETOPT, test -z "$ac_cv_path_GENGETOPT" )

and in src/Makefile I have

SUFFIXES = .ggo

if NO_GENGETOPT
.ggo.c:
        touch $@
else
.ggo.c:
        $(GENGETOPT) --input $< --unamed-opts
endif

under Linux there are no problems, while with cygwin, and automake 

$ automake --version
automake (GNU automake) 1.4

which looks the same under Linux, the conditional is not substituted,
i.e. in src/Makefile I have

if NO_GENGETOPT
.ggo.c:
        touch $@
else
.ggo.c:
        $(GENGETOPT) --input $< --unamed-opts
endif


                 cmdline.c \
                 main.cc errors.cc stringtable.cc tables.cc nodevis.cc \

and the problem seems to be that \ in myprog_SOURCES is not recognized!

Am I doing something wrong?
Notice that this problem only takes place with cygwin

thanks in advance
        Lorenzo
