This is what I was using since the beginning.  I just tried it once again to 
make sure, but it fails.  Note however that I am using version 1.4 of 
automake.  I'll grab a copy of 1.5 in the following days and try it.  If it 
doesn't work, I'll send you a tgz with my sample project's dir structure 
so that you can check it out.
