Thank you, Erik!

Please find attached to patches which fix 'make dist'

Unfortunately 'make distcheck' still fails, because test scripts don't
work with out-of-tree builds. I have a partial fix for that, but I
think it would be better to hoist most of the shell scripts into make
and use the automake test support instead.

I added a job to our jenkins continuous integration thing. Right now
it doesn't test any more than you're proposing to do, but the results
are public, which can be helpful.

FWIW,
