Thank you, Ralf, for finishing it.

The patch makes the ``dynamic'' subdirectory creation extremely
efficient: 5 lines of shell code, 6 forks.

I think this justifies removing the ``static'' method of creating the
distribution subdirectories.
Attached please find a followup patch; passes "make check".
Is it OK with you?

Have a nice day,
        Stepan Kasal
