Sorry 'bout that.  I was rushing to commit before bedtime.  Let me see
if I understand the principles:

1) Any time the build depends on any BUILT_SOURCES, it's also
necessary to ensure that those sources are built before they're
used, typically by arrangement of SUBDIRS.

2) ${top_srcdir} is for any non-built source file, while
${top_builddir} is for anything built, e.g. source or library.

3) ??? I don't understand the moving of #include "config.h".  It it
just style?
