I assume you are using automake 1.4.

With the most recent automake prerelease, this works fine.
You can even arrange to have the objects kept in subdirectories using:

    AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS = subdir-objects

This option isn't really documented yet, but it is on my to-do list.
Documentation and bug fixing are the only things delaying automake 1.5.
And right now I know of no bugs that must be fixed for the release.
