Documentation

if the current configure was run within the srcdir then we move all configure-files into a subdir and let the configure steps continue there. We provide an option --disable-builddir to suppress the move into a separate builddir.

Defaults:

 $1 = $build (defaults to `uname -msr`.d)
 $2 = Makefile.mk
 $3 = -all

This macro must be called before AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE.

it creates a default toplevel srcdir Makefile from the information found in the created toplevel builddir Makefile. It just copies the variables and rule-targets, each extended with a default rule-execution that recurses into the build directory of the current "BUILD". You can override the auto-dection through `uname -msr | tr " /" "__"`.d at build-time of course, as in

 make BUILD=i386-mingw-cross

After the default has been created, additional rules can be appended that will not just recurse into the subdirectories and only ever exist in the srcdir toplevel makefile - these parts are read from the $2 = Makefile.mk file

The automatic rules are usually scanning the toplevel Makefile for lines like '#### $build |$builddir' to recognize the place where to recurse into. Usually, the last one is the only one used. However, almost all targets have an additional "*-all" rule which makes the script to recurse into _all_ variants of the current BUILD (!!) setting. The "-all" suffix can be overriden for the macro as well.

a special rule is only given for things like "dist" that will copy the tarball from the builddir to the sourcedir (or $(PUB)) for reason of convenience.
