 Replying to [comment:3 stewart]:

 i can massage it to support ancient automake.

 Which automakes do we support currently? From the Tor 0.2.1.29 ChangeLog,
 {{{
   o Build changes:
     - Tor does not build packages correctly with Automake 1.6 and earlier;
       added a check to Makefile.am to make sure that we're building with
       Automake 1.7 or later.
 }}}

 We like being able to build on crazy and wild systems. It's all a tradeoff
 of course, but we'll be much more sad giving up flexibility in exchange
 for more cleanliness.
