Looks good. I'll let a non-Yahoo committer give you an approval.

Please also update README.md to reflect the change in directory structure. |
This fixes an issue on case-insensitive filesystems where the BUILD item in .gitignore causes the build/ directory to be ignored in git. It also opens up build/ for use as an out of source build directory, which is a very common idiom for CMake users.

Do we want rat to check our m4 files? I wonder if this line should just be removed? @bneradt do you have any input?

RAT checks our CMake scripts. This seems like an analogous case for automake. Just my two cents.

Probably good to check them. Let's do that as a separate PR though in case something goes wrong or we change our mind so it would be easy to revert.

It looks like it was accidentally added, so this removes it. I also put in a comment explaining why build/ is now in the .gitignore.

I feel like enough time has passed for someone to object to this. Approved!
