Yes, it doesn't exist there, because amiga doesn't use the autoconf 
build system.
That is somewhat unfortunate because it cripples the releases as base 
for development, as seen above. That should be fixed.
How about just adding a basic Makefile.am/Makefile.in/Makefile to the 
dir, do make "make dist" work? The amiga people don't have to use it 
for anything else.
