#2347 closed enhancement (fixed)

Use or support automake silent rules

Description

The current automake build chatter is *extremely* noisy, making build errors or warnings very hard to sift through.

Automake since 1.11 supports silent rules, which really reduces the noise in build chatter (gcc/ld/libtool calls are hidden), while still displaying build warnings and errors should they occur.
