I've done a full `make check' now.  Everything passes except
`subpkg.test'.  This one aborts with:

  automake: `LDADD' is a target; expected a variable

(`LDADD' is the name of the binary in this test case.)

Apparently, with this patch I've fixed something that prevented
this diagnostic from occuring.  (I'm not sure what.)

Now I'm wondering if this error still makes any sense today.  
I guess it was because targets and variables used to share
the same namespace in older versions of Automake?
