The macro could also be called from another macro, living in aclocal.m4 or another macro file. autoconf supports --trace for half a decade now to find such things out correctly, and autoreconf even uses that method (in the correct order of running aclocal first to find the set of interesting files). Just a thought. I don't want to disturb fragile grepping of configure.ac (and yes, I know libtoolize does it too; that doesn't make it any better). Cheers, Ralf
