It's really the other way around. By default automake generates rules which will regenerate the build system if affected files are changed. AM_MAINTAINER_MODE (which is optional and not used by most packages) allows to explicitl disable this dependency checking via AM_MAINTAINER_MODE(disable) or as configure switch --disable-maintainer-mode. -- Why is it that all of the instruments seeking intelligent life in the universe are pointed away from Earth?
