OK, so I followed up:
1) moved the assignments back to _AC_CONFIG_FOOS, with an m4_if
   (the ``nicer fix'')
2) re-inserted a newline after that assignment; this fixes a subtle
   regression introduced by the Noah's patch; see below for details
3) added double quotes around the tag names, as descussed before; this fixes
   a regression introduced by my rewrite of status.m4 from last summer.

ad 2):
The expansion of AS_CONFIG_FILES always ended with a newline.
Of course the AS_CONFIG_FILES call is in most cases on a line by itself;
but we should prevent regressions in cases when it is not.

Since most of this was discussed earlier in this thread, I took the liberty
to commit these changes.

And since I think that Noah's patch didn't go to autoconf-patches, I'm
cc'ing this mail there and attaching a combined version of both patches.

Have a nice day,
        Stepan
