One hack might be to add a -local target which checks for the presence
of the correct libraries in config.h. If the library isn't present then
the shell returns an error code and make stops. Here is a rough guess
at what this might look like:
dist-local:
@$(GREP) '#define HAVE_QHULL 1' $(top_builddir)/config.h > /dev/null
|| { echo "No QHULL library" ; exit 1; }
