This file auto-generates Makefile.am.  This means when adding a new 
nation all you have to do is dump the nation file into this directory. 
And run autogen.sh.  And add the nation to all of the rulesets.  And add 
a flag.

In short, I think this is bug-prone.  No only may you distribute files 
by mistake if they happen to be sitting around, but you're more likely 
to add a nation ruleset but forget to include it in nations.ruleset...
