>Description:
The autom4te.cache directory is created during each run of automake. Its visible presence is useless for most of the software developers.
Thus I suggest to hide it with starting dot like any other helper dirs like .deps and .libs.

>Fix:
Simple treat autom4te.cache like .libs and .deps ->
.autom4te.cache.
