The srcdir is not set in the makefile, causing such an error. If i add it

I applied a more drastic path: I simply suppressed $(srcdir)/ from Makefile.in

Just ran into the same problem on MacOS X; just substituting $(srcdir) with 
$(top_srcdir) fixes it.

Any chance of having this merged into upstream?
