I guess I'm not sure what point you are trying to make with your
example.  A relative srcdir will sometimes work and sometimes fail.  It
seemed to me an absolute srcdir should always work, but Ralf has pointed
out a somewhat obscure case where it too can fail.  Either way, it makes
no sense for automake to use two different values for srcdir.  It should
pick one and stick to it.
