"make dist" worked for me from a CVS tree.

If I go to the "epan" directory, and look at INSTALL and COPYING, I see:

	hostname$ file INSTALL COPYING 
	INSTALL: symbolic link to /usr/local/share/automake/INSTALL
	COPYING: symbolic link to /usr/local/share/automake/COPYING

so presumably somehow automake made those links at some point.
