As you have pointed out and to be more explicit about the context, the
commit 8bc35f8 was introduced because of a falsely ignored file from
"build-aux" directory, which should have be bundled with commit 9d3fb6c.
IMO in order to avoid such mistakes, only specific files in "build-aux"
dir should be added to ".gitignore". I can send a patch to fix this (if
everybody is OK with the change of course). :)
