I'm re-labelling it as a 'wishlist', because what it highlighs is "just" an automake limitation, rather than an "intrinsic" bug. Also note that your report prompted me to think about a more general incompleteness of the current APIs for the 'silent-rules' support; for more info (in case you are interested), see: <http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=8665> Thanks, Stefano
