Correct, but that's not mandatory. It's better, agreed.

Excellent decision :) Please, remove asap the ChangeLog target!

Ah! OK, I missed the fact that it was not in SUBDIRS. Now I see :)
Well, you should always go for the easiest: if I were you, I'd simply
put it into SUBDIRS, and filter it from the check-local target.

Of course!!! Not automake, any `make check'!
You also don't want `make distcheck' to pass on a failure!

That's not related to Automake, that's broader.

Trust me :) You're line serves _nothing_.
