small part of it, grew independent, and is its equal (at least).

@datadir\@ instead of @''datadir''@.
* acgeneral.m4 (AC_SHELL_DIRNAME): When using m4 the argument
is named `$1' not `$dir'.
When using m4 you ought to quote properly.
When using m4, you should check that there are not too many shell
quotes (inside the macro itself, and where it is called).
When you do this, Autoconf, hm, works better.
`yo-man-i-am-the-all-mighty-AVt0c0nF-eh-eh'. But when
`yo-man-i-am-the-all-mighty-AVt0h3Ad3R-eh-eh' and the other tools
want to trace, they might stupidly invoke the program named
`autoconf' instead. Pfff, stupid scripts :)

Pass `-m $top_srcdir': autoupdate want the `.m4' files, not the

Don't touch files that are up to date.
Run m4 on autoupdate.m4f instead of playing with sed.
Use AU_DEFUN.
* acgeneral.m4 (AC_LINK_FILES, AC_ENABLE, AC_WITH): Use AU_DEFUN,
remove the call to AC_OBSOLETE.
