IIRC noinst_HEADERS is needed if the headers are not installed (not listed in 
include_HEADERS) but need further processing (ie. moc). I made the experience 
that the Q_OBJECT-macro is only detected if the headerfile is listed in the 
Makefile.am (but noinst_HEADERS is not needed to generate the moc-files if 
you use #include "filename.moc" at the end of the .cpp)
