No longer necessary if you add foreign to AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE.

(Really, though, the repo should just delete and .gitignore all generated files [e.g. Makefile.in, install-sh, etc] to "keep the repo small")

I am not quite sure, because foreign does a bit more than that. For example, it will also turn off some warnings by default.

See #7 for the auto-generated content.
