You mean within the build tree?  You can use
  noinst_PROGRAMS = examples/udpclient examples/udpserver
  examples_udpclient_SOURCES = examples/udpclient.cpp
  examples_udpserver_SOURCES = examples/udpserver.cpp

or you can add a Makefile.am in the examples subdirectory and strip all
the examples[/_] prefixes from the names.

Cheers,
Ralf
