[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
I have an automake project with a 'po' subdirectory whose contents,
including Makefile.in.in, is entirely generated by gettext. 'po' is in my
top level Makefile.am's SUBDIRS.

When I add an AM_EXTRA_RECURSIVE_TARGETS entry, say 'foo', automake tries
to recurse into po and 'make foo', and of course this doesn't work.

Is there a way around this?

I found the "Rules-*" feature of gettext to do this; sorry for the noise!
