Hello Chris,
[this answer goes to autoconf-patches]
I did s/^on// on the following:
> >If you want @command{autoreconf} to pass flags that are not listed here
> >on to @command{aclocal}, set @code{ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS} in your Makefile.am.
you explained:
> The ``on'' implies that autoreconf is merely echoing the flags to its
> subcommands, whereas without the ``on'' there isn't such a strong

I undersood the other two cases. But I was confused by the fact that "on"
doesn't immediately follow "pass" in this case.
I reverted my change now. Sorry for the fuss.
Have a nice day,
Stepan
