I'm afraid that the commits for this bug have broken the ability to do 'make
install DESTDIR=/path/to/dir', such as used when building .debs.  The reason is,
the generated Makefile.ins look like this:


install-data-local: script.local
        $(INSTALL_DATA) script.local $(DESTDIR)$(chellodir)/script
#>-     rm script.local
#>+ 1
        rm $(DESTDIR)script.local

So 'make install DESDIR=/path/to/dir' would end up trying to:
  rm /path/to/dirscript.local

Which doesn't exist, obviously.

Removing the 'rm' line in all the Makefile.am's works for me, but I'm not sure
why it was there in the first place and whether it is necessary.
