make distcheck failure with subdir-objects enabled

[Nicolas Tisserand]

Hi.

The latest automake seems to behave strangely on this kind of situation :

* two sub-directories :
/foo/foo.{cc,hh}
/bar/bar.{cc,hh}

* /libfoobar.a (made from the sources from those directories)

* a check_PROGRAM /foo/foo-test made from /foo/foo_test.cc

When subdirs-objects is disabled, make distcheck succeeds.
But unfortunately, when enabled, make distcheck fails :

[...]

Making distclean in .

`/home/lrde/stud/tisser_n/work/automake/automake-bug/foobar-0.1/=build'

make: *** [distcheck] Error 2

I'm using the following versions :

automake (GNU automake) 1.7
autoconf (GNU Autoconf) 2.54

I enclosed a minimalistic `dist' tarball that reproduces the problem.

Cheers.
