'make distcheck' has a high probability of failure in GTK+ due to
the documentation stuff anyway.  I use 'make release' which does 
some additional work.  There is also 'make snapshot' which should 
work as well, although I haven't used it.  I will make sure it works
if you have a use for it.

'dist-hook' doesn't run at the correct time to do what I needed to 
do when preparing the docs for distribution, so making 'make dist'
work seems like a lot of pain with zero gain.
