Ralf,

Thank you for replying.

I understand.  I have the freedom to place them wherever I choose.  I chose 
$(srcdir) because I thought it would simplify the Makefile.am.  It will be a 
good exercise for me to move the files to the builddir and see what issues come 
up.

I am following this pattern: 
http://www.gnu.org/software/hello/manual/automake/Multiple-Outputs.html

ANTLR produces 5 cpp files with one invocation.  These dependencies prevent 
make from trying to create them with 5 invocations of ANTLR in the event "-j 5" 
is passed.

Thanks again for your help,

Chris
