what i described is standard.  automake gets the directory name from the first 
part (what comes before the "_") and figures out how to treat the files via 
the second part (the primary -- what comes after the "_").  the automake 
manual on the automake homepage describes all of this.

if you're trying to put things into diff paths based on the primary, i dont 
think that works -- that's not how automake is designed.
