Yes, block files are.

The effect of this patch is to include the rules in libqblock's own
Makefile.

libqblock indeed needs to compile these files to .lo.  However,
regeneration of the C source code and header shouldn't be needed there.
 I think you're missing a dependency in the toplevel Makefile's
"libqblock.la" rule.

By the way, do not name that rule "libqblock.la".  It doesn't build
libqblock.la, it builds libqblock/libqblock.la.  Instead, name it
subdir-libqblock.
