Auto regeneration of Makefile.in and Makefile

It appears that when I modify Makefile.am it will then automatically
modify Makefile.in. If I modify Makefile.in it will automatically cause
the Makefile to be regenerated. How can I stop that? I want to stop it
because the Makefile has special parameters I have taken out so it would
compile with my compiler and when the Makefile is regenerated it is very
irritating to go back and retake it out.
I also know what places to modify in all three files so I don't have
rerun automake and then configure on everything.
Thanks,
Tim Heath
P.S.
I would like to avoid this problem all together by writing some m4
macros for my particular compiler so it would generate a Makefile that
my compiler would be happy with. Does anyone know of a good tutorial or
reference to do this?
