Hi Alexandre,

One gets confused over whether one is speaking "automake" or "make"-ese.
Such an automated rule is useful when one is trying to work with
minimalist "Makefile"s, but once you start playing with "automake"
I don't think the term "minimalist" applies any more.  :-)  So, I'll
add some rule like:

    .c:
        @:

to the Makefile.am file and force it to leave things alone, yes?

Thanks - Bruce
