Well.  I'm sorry for being less verbose in my bug report, and for not
looking enough at which program's fault this is.  But: CVS HEAD Automake
still fails on the files libtool-1.5/{demo,pdemo}/Makefile.am with

| Makefile.am: C objects with per-target flags but `AM_PROG_CC_C_O' not in 
`configure.ac'

So then this must be a bug in Automake, right?
