xhier - putting Makefile-body in source directory doesn't work

From: John M Sellens <jmsellens> Because you usually have multiple distribution hosts, and when you make distribute on the secondary machine it tries to make the makefile, and then complains because there is no Makefile-body and the DistributionLog is "non-trivial", and so never gets around to doing the distribute. I ran into this on mfcf-misc and will try to avoid it by moving the Makefile-body from the source directory to the package directory.

I've been complaining about this for weeks. I finally got things to stop messing up by putting the M*y in the package directory and putting a symlink to it in the source directory. Then the xh-* doesn't move the one under the package directory to source, and if I change the one under the package directory the xh-* notices when it looks at the version under source. I think Bill finally agreed to have xh-* stop moving the M*y from the package to the source directory, but I'm leaving my symlinks there anyway, since I don't trust any of this stuff.
