Re: [Ayttm-devel] defaults.h and automake

well, considering that the default auto* on most distros is just as old 
(many still ship autoconf 2.13), there's nothing we can do.

IMO, developers should stick to the latest (stable at least) versions, 
but since we have anoncvs, many non devels also use cvs.

I should have fixed this a long time ago, except it was just never 
documented that I should be using AM_*  I got some hint from reading the 
source of the generated Makefiles, but no concrete docs as to what those 
were for.  Will fix it after 0.2.1

PS:  I'm going ahead with post 0.2.1 changes.  Will commit part by part 
after the release.
