What does the GNU coding standard have to say about the release process?
I'd also be wary of a ``rewrite'', the top-level stuff iteracts with
sub-directories in strange ways. I think reserving the existing
behavior (but perhaphs outside of the Makefile.in) would be a better
incremental step.
Also, how does this compare to GCC's release process.
