The test suite did not cover this bug because the code was not
quoting properly the arguments of `rm -f' (which "fails" silently)
as well as the arguments of `diff' (whose output was redirected to
/dev/null so we couldn't see its error message).
* lib/autoconf/status.m4 (_AC_OUTPUT_HEADER): Properly quote the
file names passed to `rm' and `diff'.
