Hi!
I have a set of common headers files in includes/ and the following

AC_SUBST(CPPFLAGS,[-I../includes])
...since all source files are in parallel directories. This works
fine for everything but a distcheck. Is there a simple means of
placing an absolute path there? I've tried a couple of different
methods, but no luck.
Try:
CPPFLAGS="${srcdir}/includes"
AC_SUBST(CPPFLAGS)
Also, is it perfectly legit to list these files in the top-level
Makefile.am as EXTRA_DIST, rather than explicitly listing this
subdirectory, adding a Makefile.am there, ... since there's
nothing to build there?
It it works, then it must be legit, otherwise no. :-)
