I think the right thing might be to require GNU Make for $srcdir !=  
$builddir. If you search the automake mailing list, there are claims  
that GNU Make is the only make that implements VPATH "correctly".

So the trick is to actually implement this. Since configure doesn't do  
substitutions on main.mk AFAICT, probably the best thing to do is to  
have the perl build tools emit the default build rules somewhere.
