Commit 9aef4d96 states that it was automake from RHEL 5 that caused the
grief; as we no longer support that platform, we no longer have to
maintain the back-compat hacks.

The next back-compat hack to get rid of: we should stop using INCLUDES
in Makefile.am, and instead spell it CPPFLAGS. INCLUDES was necessary
for automake 1.9.6 (see commit 6ae3052c), but modern automake says it is
outdated.
