preventing autoheader from overwriting my files...


Hello.  I've got a header file I want autotools to handle for me,
WarpedConfig.h.  My WarpedConfig.h.in has header guards in it and has
"#undef"s for all of the things I want defined.  I have this in my
configure.ac:
AC_CONFIG_HEADERS([src/warped/WarpedConfig.h:src/warped/WarpedConfig.h.in])

Normally this works fine.  But I have noticed that if I manually run
"autoheader" the file WarpedConfig.h.in gets overwritten.  And occasionally
it happens with "autoreconf -i" as well.

Am I do something wrong, missing something, or is this a feature I don't
understand?

Thanks!
	Dale
