I suggest you to use the "Import existing project" feature of kdevelop 3 (also 
known as gideon). Actually, gideon is still an alpha, but is really very 
usable, and has a great automake management.

"Makefile" is created when you run "configure" using as a basis "Makefile.in". 
"Makefile.in" is created by automake using "Makefile.am", and finally, 
"Makefile.am" is created/modified by hand, or using kdevelop.

In kdevelop 2, ther was a "kdevelop will overwrite this" section, but, as far 
as I know, kdevelop 3 is so smart to manage human modifications to 
Makefile.am, without causing problems.

Anyway, to handle moc files, you only need to have a line like this in 
Makefile.am :
METASOURCES = AUTO

I hope that helps, and sorry for my poor english :-P.

Best regards.
