I did point that out upthread, with you in particular in mind. ;-)
I've been thinking that we could actually get rid of that build-in-srcdir
behavior, which also occasionally puzzles vpath users with respect to gram.c
and so on. The new behavior would be to build targets in the local directory.
The only requirement would be that distribution tarballs be built in-tree, so
that the stuff that is distprep'ed actually ends up in the tarball, but I
think that should not be a problem.
