Alternatively one could try to use "automake --foreign"
instead of "automake --gnu". The automake manual states
`foreign'
Automake will check for only those things which are absolutely
required for proper operations. For instance, whereas GNU
standards dictate the existence of a `NEWS' file, it will not be
required in this mode. The name comes from the fact that Automake
is intended to be used for GNU programs; these relaxed rules are
not the standard mode of operation.
Maybe this avoids these empty files.
