No, it means that we are catering to a bug in autoconf 2.59. How would you propose fixing it? (And technically, yes, autoconf allows you to define the empty string as a macro, invokable by indir, so in that sense, NAME really is optional, although it doesn't make much sense to omit NAME). - -- Don't work too hard, make some time for fun as well!
