Double Drat.

I can't dup it, but it doesn't work with automake 1.5 for me either (see 
attached output). Fails with 'make distcheck'.

I think may have found a clue. Looking in the NEWS file in automake-1.6.3, I 
see this (under the "New in 1.6" section):

* `AC_INIT AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE(tarname,version)' is an obsolete construct.
  You can now use `AC_INIT(pkgname,version) AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE' instead.
  (Note that "pkgname" is not "tarname", see the manual for details.)
  It is also possible to pass a list of global Automake options as
  first argument to this new form of AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE.

I've set up our configure.ac file as such:

AC_INIT(avrdude, 3.1.0cvs, address@hidden)
AC_PREREQ(2.53)
AC_CONFIG_SRCDIR([main.c])
AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE

Notice that AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE doesn't take any args.

Just for kicks, I just changed the AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE to this:

AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE(avrdude, 3.1.0cvs)

And it compiles and "make distcheck" passes with automake 1.5 and ac-2.53. 
Grrr. Also works with am-1.6.3 and am-1.7.3, ac-2.53 and ac-2.57.

Brian, can you retry my patch with adding similar args to AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE?
