Hi Norbert,

the current version of silent-rule support exists since 1.11.3, but it have
just seen that AM_V_P was introduced only in 1.12.3.  Sorry for that, but I
see no simple way other than upgrading automake (need not be system wide).

As a temporary workaround you can put 'AM_V_P=true' or 'AM_V_P=false' into the
environment.
