Eh.. I've now found out that why this line is like it is :)
*embarrassed* I really should learn to wait and rethink things before I
post.. I'm just too impatient. Sorry.

It occured to me when building in a different directory from the
sourcedir...

The question still stands how I can accomplish this properly though:

AM_CPPFLAGS = -I$(srcdir)
bin_PROGRAMS = gaqueens
gaqueens_SOURCES = gaqueens.c
gaqueens_LDADD =  $(srcdir)/libgga.la -lm

However, at the moment I have to write the considerably more kludgey:
(Unless, off course, I take shortcuts such as using `..' in place of
$(top_builddir) since I know that's what it expands to.)

AM_CPPFLAGS = -I$(top_builddir)/gga
bin_PROGRAMS = gaqueens
gaqueens_SOURCES = gaqueens.c
gaqueens_LDADD = $(top_builddir)/gga/libgga.la -lm
