I tested, too. But not for bug-compatibility with older autoconf. > Jim and Simon, it looks like you don't understand this autoconf magic either, I understand autoconf quoting rules well enough to realize that the transformation I performed is valid -- with new enough autoconf. It looks like it is sometimes invalid with at least autoconf-2.61. Since we still support autoconf-2.61, I've simply reverted the changes to that file. No big deal. Thanks again, Simon, for catching it.
