Wrong, actually. What isn't supported are variable references in
variable/primary names:
$ cat > Makefile.am <<-END
foo = bin
$(foo)_PROGRAMS = bar
END
$ automake -a
Makefile.am:2: bad characters in variable name `$(foo)_PROGRAMS'
Makefile.am:2: `$(foo)_PROGRAMS' is used but `$(foo)dir' is undefined
Best regards,
