Hi Ben,

Did you encounter that when building from the tarball? I saw the same
error when running "make distcheck" but just thought it was an issue of
distcheck not just trying to make a tarball and build it, but trying to
build it in a maximally-pain-in-the-ass way ;)  But if you're getting
that problem from a tarball, then possibly there's a template.py that
automake isn't being told to put into the tarball.

If you're getting this error from an SVN checkout, then I'm much more
surprised!

Cheers,
Andy
