yes, I think Akim asks for undoing the quoting part of that.

I have read again the nodes ``Autoconf Language'' and ``Quotation Rule
Of Thumb''.  I understand now that it is most consistent with the
spirit of the manual to use single quotes here.

So I changed my mind and fully support Akims proposal.  Sorry for the
confusion.

But I still think the second example needs a fix for the problem I have
described in my previous mail.

The attached patch does both of the above.

Regards,
        Stepan
