Under the same reasoning, I think we should keep AC_DIAGNOSE as an
alias to its m4sugar implementation, and use AC_DIAGNOSE in autoconf
code, so that, if we ever decide to make some change in the diagnostic
output that is specific to autoconf, we can do it by replacing the
alias with a macro, instead of having to modify m4sugar because of
some autoconf's need.

Other than that, ok.
