Error because README is missing

Hi all;
In the GNU make package I don't have a README file when it is first
checked out from CVS. There is a README.in which is translated into a
README, replacing the version info etc.
This used to work but now automake is failing:
Makefile.am: required file `./README' not found
Any hints on how I can convince automake that the file will really be
there by the time the package is already built, so it doesn't give this
error?
