But another question to ask is if that is the case why not simply touch
all of the files to the same time after the patching and before the
make?  That also forces everything to appear up to date too and doesn't
need AM_MAINTAINER_MODE to be added.

Sure, that also works.  It just seems kind of silly to have to deceive
make rather than just removing the make rules that one doesn't want.

It only works if the source files are allowed to be writeable.
