Try
SUBDIRS = ... $(TESTS_MAYBE) ...
DIST_SUBDIRS = $(SUBDIRS)
And define TESTS_MAYBE conditionally with an AC_SUBST.
Automake shouldn't be able to complain about directories it cannot
know about.

Automake wants you to distribute a self-contained package. If a
directory can be built under some configuration option, then
that directory ought to be distributed.
