This seems like an automake question, not a make question. Automake has
the notion of a 'maintainer mode', wherein if the configure.ac specifies
AM_MAINTAINER_MODE then the rules to regenerate Makefile.in et al. are
omitted from the generated Makefile. You must 'configure
--enable-maintainer-mode' to have them enabled. This is to support the
situation where a project stores copies of generated files in version
control in order to allow casual users to have a fighting chance of
building the software without requiring an extensive list of (often
version-specific) developer tool requirements. See section 27.2.2 of
the automake manual.
