I'm still right, but for another reason. You speak about the
make dist
which is called at the very end of distcheck, to compare a VPATH-
generated tarball from the created source and build trees with the one
that was generated at the very beginning of distcheck. It's this latter
(earlier in time ;-) one that is identical to what you create with `make
dist' anyway.
