Automake explicitly recognizes the use of $(LIBOBJS) and
$(ALLOCA), and uses this information, plus the list of
LIBOBJS files derived from configure.in to automatically
include the appropriate source files in the distribution (see What Goes in a Distribution).
These source files are also automatically handled in the
dependency-tracking scheme; see See Automatic dependency tracking.
$(LIBOBJS) and $(ALLOCA) are specially recognized in any
‘_LDADD’ or ‘_LIBADD’ variable.
