First, decide whether there really is a problem.  Automake gives you a lot
of useful things for free, and does the right thing in many oddball cases
that you may not have even considered yet (have you used "make distcheck"?).
If you really don't want to use it, all you need to do is write Makefile.in
instead of Makefile.am.
