config.status dependencies problem with non GNU make

Hi,

I just found that `config.status' is not automaticaly regenerated if
some vendor `make' are used (i tried both Tru64 v5.1 and NetBSD
v1.5). But it works fine with GNU make.

The problem seems that both `config.status' and
`$(top_builddir)/config.status' are used in automake rules, and some
make programs does not understand it as the same entity.

One solution should be to adapt the rule :

## Explicitly look in srcdir for benefit of non-GNU makes.
config.status: $(srcdir)/configure $(CONFIG_STATUS_DEPENDENCIES)
        $(SHELL) ./config.status --recheck

to 

## Explicitly look in srcdir for benefit of non-GNU makes.
$(top_builddir)/config.status: $(srcdir)/configure $(CONFIG_STATUS_DEPENDENCIES)
        $(SHELL) ./config.status --recheck

Thanks in advance.
