Why not? Because I don't require any feature new in 1.13, yet it breaks my
package. Also because it's in no long-term-support distro like Ubuntu 12.04.
I personally installed 1.13 and released a tarball with it, just to discover
that travis-ci.org, our automated continuous-build server, doesn't have
automake 1.13. So now I have to patch that system, and ask all my developer /
testers to install automake 1.13. All these not even because we use any
feature new in 1.13...
At least to allow fixing similar issues in the future, make AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE
warn about unknown options but not err.
