Keng-Yu, I applied this and ran autoreconf -ivf in a clean trusty build
environment and I'm getting:

autoreconf: running: automake --add-missing --copy --force-missing
configure.ac:3: installing './ar-lib'
configure.ac:3: installing './compile'
configure.ac:4: installing './config.guess'
configure.ac:4: installing './config.sub'
configure.ac:2: installing './install-sh'
configure.ac:2: installing './missing'
automake: warnings are treated as errors

is in a subdirectory,
src/Makefile.am:21: but option 'subdir-objects' is disabled
automake: warning: possible forward-incompatibility.
automake: At least a source file is in a subdirectory, but the
'subdir-objects'
automake: automake option hasn't been enabled.  For now, the
corresponding output
automake: object file(s) will be placed in the top-level directory.
However,
automake: this behaviour will change in future Automake versions: they will
automake: unconditionally cause object files to be placed in the same
subdirectory
automake: of the corresponding sources.
automake: You are advised to start using 'subdir-objects' option
throughout your
automake: project, to avoid future incompatibilities.

Any ideas?
