Bug Description
It seems that when I try to do an out of tree build, and use the above macro in my Makefile.am, that it does not create the output folder for me and fails with:
Died at /usr/bin/
This can easily be solved by adding in an $(MKDIR_P) $(dir $@) to the rule, but I'm not sure how reliable that will turn out to be.
There is perhaps another way that this could be done too, and you could say that this system just expects it's output folders to exists, in which case this is not a bug but defined behaviour

Can you please link to or attach the Makefile.am in question? The command you're talking about outputs to $builddir, which should be created automatically by autoconf when it generates the Makefile from the Makefile.in, anyway.
