I believe my only choice at this point is to forbid "make dist" if tar is
detected to be old (less than 1.29), and keep doing --hard-dereference. I
open to new ideas though. :-)
The attached patch solves the problem in a more elegant manner IMHO,
so I plan to include this modified tar.m4 in my project.
Review is welcome, and feel free to include to upstream automake.
