cf. below:

DISTCLEANFILES = \
psheader.cpp \
psheader.h

bin_PROGRAMS = qdvi
noinst_PROGRAMS = squeeze

BUILT_SOURCES = psheader.cpp psheader.h

qdvi_SOURCES = \
qdvi.cpp \
psheader.cpp \
psheader.h

squeeze_SOURCES = squeeze.c psheader.txt

psheader.cpp: psheader.txt squeeze$(EXEEXT)
        touch psheader.cpp
psheader.h: psheader.txt squeeze$(EXEEXT)
        touch psheader.h
