Right now if a user checks the source from svn they have to
do ./configure --enable-maintainer-mode to be able to compile. It
appears that this is due to the AM_MAINTAINER_MODE macro in
configure.ac. If I remove this then a mere ./configure is enough to be
able to built the source (including documentation). In the archives of
automake they advice against this macro. Is there a reason why we have
it?
Thanks
