thanks for the test case.  it's slightly incomplete and fails because distcheck
can't find sub/nodist.dat to install (which makes sense as it wasn't included
in the tarball).  but that was trivial to resolve with your test case, and i'm
guessing it was failing sooner for you.

which is my long winded way of saying i can't reproduce the bug with automake
1.16.  i'm going to mark this done on the assumption something/someone fixed
the bug.  but i'll update your test and include it to make sure we keep working.

specifically, looking at the tarball produced by `make dist`, i see:
nobase-dist-1.0/sub/
nobase-dist-1.0/sub/nobase.dat
nobase-dist-1.0/sub/base.dat
nobase-dist-1.0/sub/dist.dat
