Looks like you need to regenerate the Makefile.in - you broke make dist:


     address@hidden automake-clean]$ make dist
     chmod -R a+w automake-1.4c > /dev/null 2>&1; rm -rf automake-1.4c
     mkdir automake-1.4c
     /bin/sh ./mkinstalldirs automake-1.4c/. .
     for subdir in . m4 tests; do \
       if test "$subdir" = .; then :; else \
         test -d automake-1.4c/$subdir \
         || mkdir automake-1.4c/$subdir \
         || exit 1; \
         (cd $subdir && \
           make  top_distdir=../automake-1.4c
     distdir=../automake-1.4c/$subdir distdir) \
           || exit 1; \
       fi; \
     done
     make[1]: Entering directory `/home/dprice/work/automake-clean/m4'
     make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/dprice/work/automake-clean/m4'

     make[1]: *** No rule to make target `ChangeLog', needed by

     make: *** [distdir] Error 1
