The solution to these messages has been found.
When I removed this line from Makefile.am the messages disappeared.
>INCLUDES =     $(astrosrc)

It seems that if you specify a source file in a different directory, the system 
knows to look in that directory for includes without explicitly telling it to.

But why did this line cause the error? I can not figure out the 
"linker input file unused because linking not done" error.


Thank You.
