Hi kodis,
In your top-level Makefile.am, simply change the ordering of the
directories in SUBDIRS to have the top-level directory build first.
I suspect that it currently looks something like this:
SUBDIRS = tests .
or
SUBDIRS = tests
(the first is simply a more explicit version of the second). You would
want to change it so that '.' comes before 'tests':
SUBDIRS = . tests
