Such as

$(srcdir)/Makefile.in: Makefile.am $(top_srcdir)/configure.in $(ACLOCAL_M4)
        cd $(top_srcdir) && $(AUTOMAKE) --gnu Makefile
Makefile: $(srcdir)/Makefile.in $(top_builddir)/config.status $(BUILT_SOURCES) 
        cd $(top_builddir) \
          && CONFIG_FILES=$@ CONFIG_HEADERS= $(SHELL) ./config.status

as generated in the top-level Ethereal Makefile.in by automake, for
example?


I guess that they are the ones! I tried many times to get make to create
either a Makefile or a Makefile.in & it wouldn't. Perhaps (if it is right now)
it will in the future.

Ben.
