Ok, I am really confused now!  I checked my different Makefile/.am/.in
files and they have the above.  I then decided to try and build the last
stable release from source (2.6.2).  I downloaded the source, ran
"jhbuild shell", and then did a ./configure && make - built first time.

I then did a diff on configure.in, Makefile.am, and activation-server/
Makefile.am between 2.6.2 and CVS HEAD, aside from some new translations
in configure.in there is no difference between the versions.

I really don't have clue about why this is failing!
