Can there be situations where AUCTeX will be configured but not built?
In case there are not, we could use something like

AC_CHECK_PROGS_REQUIRED(MAKE, make, [make not found, aborting!])

I am not sure, however, if this may influence `AC_PROG_MAKE_SET'.
Maybe the macro call should not use MAKE but something else.
