Not updating Makefile correct

[Roland Krause]

This is actually not a shortcoming of the whole autoconf/automake
scheme. I dont like autoconf/automake at all, cause I am to stupid to
learn m4, but this is a design mistake on your behalf. 

The point of autoconf/automake is to have someone else, who has no clue
about your code, being able to compile it on different architecture. In
that case configure scripts should be in the source package, all the
necessary files should be in the standard includes or the ones found by
configure and everything else should have been handled in Makefile.am
or configure.in.in macros. An end user should never have to specify
extra include directories other than through configure arguments. 

A codeveloper is a different kind of animal. To have codeveloper Here
be able to compile your project the extra includes should be stored in
the kdevelop project file. I cant remember exactly but I think they
even are.
