[FYI] {maint} distcheck: more resilient against possible failures

[Stefano Lattarini]

* lib/am/distdir.am (distcheck): Ensure that a failure in the commands
making the just-extracted source tree read-only cause the recipe to fail.
While at it, save a fork by creating the '_build' and '_inst' subdir
with a single mkdir invocation.
