Correct, but that makes the assumption that 'automake' is installed on
the host system, because systemd does not depend on host-automake.
Therefore, it will fail to build on the autobuilders, which don't have
automake installed.

That's precisely why, as soon as an Makefile.am is changed, we have to
use <pkg>_AUTORECONF = YES, which will ensure
host-{autoconf,automake,libtool} are built.
