Sorry if I ping this trivial patch, but it seems simple enough to be 
applied easily if it's deemed worth, and if it's not deemed woth I'd 
like to understand why.

I do this ping because, when some of my other patches were rejected or 
delayed, it was for good reasons, which were clearly stated and 
explained (which also helped me to better understand the "style" used 
in Automake's source tree and developement flow); and I thought that 
this patch might have just "fallen off the radar".  But if the lack of 
review is just due to lack of time on part of the maintainers, I 
apologize, hoping not to have been too pushy.

Regards,
    Stefano
