Thanks.  I'll work through these and try to fix things so they just work
out of the box, or failing that document the issues.

That should no longer be an issue in 0.9.2 - I redid the code which used
find and it now looks at the contents of the Makefile.am-s instead.

Did you actually hit this issue (in which case something's amiss)?  Or
did you just read about it and take steps to avoid it?
