it looks useful but _very_ hard to actually use.

why is maint.mk put into my top dir?
shouldn't it go to src/build-aux/?
why doesn't vc-list-files accept a list of directories?
(it would be 'src modules' for me)
why is $(srcdir)/lib/ hard-coded? I use gllib instead of lib.

when I managed to get it "running", I got
warnings about HAVE_ALLOCA_H in ChangeLog, aclocal.m4, and configure.

thanks for the pointer though...
