+This macro is used to enable Autodist dependencies in 'Makefile.ad' files.  
+If this macro is used, then after editing 'Makefile.ad' file running 
+Autodist manually is not required, but it is run automatically when the 
+source is compiled with 'make'.  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.
