Could you please check your version of automake ?
The %D% feature (aka %reldir%) was actually introduced with automake-1.14.
( see: https://blog.flameeyes.eu/2013/06/autotools-mythbuster-what-s-new-in-automake-1-14 )
The %D% expands to the relative path of the included file, at autoreconf time (not at build time).
Make will not see them.

This feature allows nesting modules, while avoiding the specification of redundant nested paths *and* avoiding the use of recursive make.

I know ; but AFAIU those are not
