Hello,
  i apologize that I reply to myself.  I found out there is one nit:

> If you write the rule for ChangeLog to Makefile.am, then Automake
> complains that the file does not exist at the time Automake is run.

Actually, Automake suppresses the message if a rule named
"ChangeLog" is found.
But I think the right name for the target is "$(srcdir)/ChangeLog",
since it is a distributed file.

Does this mean this is a bug in Automake?

And if yes, then current implementations cannot rely on the feature,
so how can one handle generated ChangeLog with current Automake?

Thanks,
        Stepan
