I shouldn't forget to tell you how I'm grateful for your work.
Both the solution and the documentation are excellent.
Yet let me do some nit-picking:
1) I noticed typos; see the patch attached.
2) Regarding the sentence:

My feelings are that when Autoconf and Automake run, it's ``compile-time'',
while the term ``run-time'' denotes the time when ./configure and make run.
There is one spot in the Automake manual which supports this, in the node
"Conditional Programs":
Obviously it cannot rewrite values obtained at run-time
through `configure' substitutions,
I'm not sure how the solution should look like; a minimal change would be
...`automake' needs to know the filename at it's run-time ...
but I wouldn't be surprised if you found a much better solution.
Thank you again,
Stepan
