And it interprets += itself by flattening it: variable = foo if COND variable += bar endif will be translated to something like variable = foo $(am__some_internal_helper_var1) @COND_TRUE@am__some_internal_helper_var1 = bar and config.status substitutes @COND_TRUE@ with '#' or '' depending on whether the condition is true at configure time. Hope that helps. Cheers, Ralf
