I'm maintaining scwm: scwm_0.9-1 does'nt require a call to automake so the
problem is gone now. Sure the problem (if you run automake 1.4 over scwm,
automake give an error) is yet present. I would like to ask a more general 
question: a Makefile.am file designed to work with automake 1.13 is supposed 
to work with automake 1.14?  I ask this because:
1) if the automakes are not supposed to be compatible, my package (which call 
automake in the build scripts) ha a bug
2) if the automakes are supposed to be compatible , scwm has a bug.

Thank you for every reply.
