I have run into this on occasion, but not recently, and of course have  
forgotten the exact error/warning messages.  Haven't at least some .in  
files been either deprecated by or actually produced from the .am or  
.ac files by autogen.sh? (I suppose I miss many of these messages if I  
use meson/ninja instead of autogen.sh/make.)
