Delete a dummy ChangeLog in ‘make distclean’.
‘make distcheck’ from git may create a dummy ChangeLog file in the build directory. Delete this on ‘make distclean’, but don’t delete a real ChangeLog (generated by the gen-ChangeLog rule). * Makefile.am (distclean-local): Delete ChangeLog if it is the dummy created to pacify automake.
