Hi Tal, I'm really not a Vala/automake expert, the information I got is from the docs only.

The generated .c files are distributed. The end user does not need to have a Vala compiler installed." So, the end user doesn't need to have a working valac. Otherwise it would be a bug in the docs that you should report. Did you try it once?
