[PATCH] {maint} cosmetics: cater for vim syntax highlight in distdir.am

[Stefano Lattarini]

Hello automakers.

I'm not sure if it is acceptable to submit a patch aimed at working
around limits and warts of an editor's syntax highlighting, but I
guess I'll find out very soon :-)

So, OK for maint, or only for /dev/null?

Thanks,
  Stefano

cosmetics: cater for vim syntax highlight in distdir.am

* lib/am/distdir.am (distdir): Avoid using single quotes in
automake comments embedded in a shell command substitution,
as that might confuse vim (7.2) syntax highlighting.
