    build: configure: automake defaults to max filename length=99 chars

    automake's default rule for making tar files invokes tar with options
    to use Unix V7 tar file format, which has a maximum FQ pathname length
    of 99 characters. Some of the new tests in .../tests/bugs/... have names
    that are longer than 99 chars. These files are dropped from the dist
    tarfile.

    automake can be configured to use a newer (POSIX 2001) tar format that
    does not have limits on the length of file names.
