This line was added in a1d5239b5e to cope with absent Fortran compiler.

This is just cleanup for the following, I guess.

Probably I just added the distcheck merely to ensure that the rules for
the generated sources in sub/Makefile.am are consistent.  I tend to add
them while writing a test, to ensure the Makefile.am files are complete
and fairly copy-pasteable.  No big issue either way here though.
