Changwoo has already answered this one.  There are two automake+CVS
interaction philosophies: (1) (which Tom endorses) check it all in, so
you have the full contents of the .tar.gz file in the CVS repository.
(2) (which we are using in GNOME) don't put *any* generated file under
CVS control.

I think that (1) is better for tighly-knit projects without anonymous
access (since everyone can have the exact same versions of automake,
libtool, autoconf etc...), but (2) is better for GNOME because it is
such a distributed project.

I have just committed those fixes!  Let me know if it works for you.

My next goal is to try it out on non-linux machines :-)
