docbook support

[Siegfried Keusch]

we use automake in a project (java & c++) and now want to
build our documentation using automake.
project path looks like this
/prog1
/prog1/src
/prog1/doc
/prog2
...

makefile.am's in the src dir is no problem,
but for the documentation it looks like this (e.g):

SGMLFILES=architecture.sgml glossary.sgml
include $(top_srcdir)/doc/docbook.am

so in every directory containing documentation
i have to link to this file. imagine this filename changes...

another point is that i had to change the clear.am to this
...
clean-generic:
CLEAN   -test -z "$(CLEANFILES)" || rm -f $(CLEANFILES)
MAINTAINERCLEAN -test -z "@MCFILES@" || rm -f @MFILES@
    $(RM) -f $(SGMLFILES:.sgml=.pdf) $(SGMLFILES:.sgml=.ps)
...

this doesn't look fine...
the thing i wanted was to simply add
        SGMLFILES=architecture.sgml glossary.sgml
to any makefile.am and then the proper documentation
is created.

thx Siegfried
