      removing Makefile.in files from cvs would be a good think (if they became

  Some file is out of sync, so it keeps re-running automake.  One would normally 
thing this should correct itself once the up to date ones are committed.  Maybe 
something that the makefiles depend on was committed with a bogus date.

  The rationale for having the Makefile.in's in CVS is to make it easier for 
users to grab snapshots and not need a large set of tools.  Ideally, this 
dependency should get fixed up somehow so that it doesn't re-run automake every 
time.
