Personally, I dislike site directories since
they make it a hassle to move my stuff from one site to another.
However, I wouldn't object to having a configure-time option for
building autoconf, for people who like to have site directories.
Unfortunately, I've seen so many proposals in this area that I'm a bit
lost as to what's being proposed. For example, I don't understand
where the stuff will get cached. I believe you mentioned that it will
get cached into aclocal.m4, but won't that collide with Automake's
aclocal?

I think that's essential.
Also, I would say that for now there should not be a site macro
directory unless the autoconf installer or autoconf user says so. If
the feature proves to be popular, we can always change this default.
