1.3.38 : 2020-05-26T17:33:08-0400

  [BUG FIXES]

     * automake doesn't support a double-colon dist-hook target and if
       multiple conditionals are used may insert a single-colon
       dist-hook target. dist-hooks are now supported via hooks.mk,
       which introduces the DIST_HOOKS macro.  hooks.mk is loaded via
       create_am_macros.mk.

1.3.37 : 2020-04-09T17:58:58-0400

     * paths which used autoconf's PACKAGE_NAME now use automake's
       PACKAGE, as the former is not guaranteed to be a legal path

     * distdir now explicitly uses autoconf's PACKAGE_TARNAME instead
       of automake's PACKAGE, as the latter may be tweaked (e.g. gtk+-2.0)
       and would lead to bizarre tarball names (gtk+-2.0-2.x.x)
