arg-nonnull.h & warn-on-use.h in build-aux

Hi,
I updated gnulib in clisp and gnulib-tool installed arg-nonnull.h & warn-on-use.h in src/build-aux. why aren't these files in the usual place (src/gllib), together with all the other headers?

now, I am getting this error when building modules which use gnulib:

make[2]: *** No rule to make target `CLISP-HOME/modules/syscalls/src/build-aux/arg-nonnull.h', needed by `arg-nonnull.h'. Stop.

this is because arg-nonnull.h is in
CLISP-HOME/src/build-aux/arg-nonnull.h

this is no good - I need to be able to specify the location of the build-aux directory (since it could be coming from an existing clisp installation, not a build directory).

so, how do I specify the location of these files?

this patch would help a lot:

(and a similar one for arg-nonnull)

one would also need to somehow convince automake to add
build_aux = $(top_srcdir)/build-aux
to Makefile.in, but I don't know how to do that.

Thanks.
Sam.
