   Update .info files in the source tree, not in the build tree.
   This is what the GNU Coding Standard recommend.  Only Automake
   1.7.x used to update these files in the build tree (previous
   versions did it in the source tree too), and it caused several
   problems, varying from mere annoyance to portability issues.
   
drat, i really came to appreciate .info files in the build tree.
will this behavior be enabled (optionally) in the future?
