Variable assignment lines in the input Makefile.am pull in defaults
from various little *.am files.
+To use AutoMake, replace your Makefile.in files with Makefile.am
+files. Since there's no documentation, look at the automake script
+and the examples provided for GNU m4 1.3 and fileutils 3.9 (along with
+patches you need to apply to those packages).
+
+AutoMake is just a prototype at this point -- expect omissions and bugs.
