+This macro is used to disable Autodist dependencies in 'Makefile.ad' 
+files.  If this macro is used, then after editing 'Makefile.ad' file the 
+Autodist must be run manually.  When dependencies are enabled editing 
+Autodist is run automatically when source is compiled with 'make'. 
+Dependencies make the development easier.  This macro has no arguments.
+
+Note that, the dependencies are enabled only in the prepared source tree.  
+Depedencies are not delivered to distribution, as they would require the 
+presence of 'Makefile.ad' files, which are not delivered to distribution. 
+
+Current Autodist version does not support dependencies in 'configure.ad' 
+files, only in 'Makefile.ad' files.
