Ok, I'm changing the subject line for the obvious reason.
It appears that GUILE_NAMED_CHECK_FUNC in aclocal.m4 expects AC_LANG
without arguments to expand to the name of the current language:
ifelse(AC_LANG, CPLUSPLUS, ...
This worked for Autoconf-2.13 but not for the CVS version. This feature is
not documented for Autoconf-2.13.
Anyway, C++ is called C++, not CPLUSPLUS in the current Autoconf. An
undocumented macro AC_LANG_CASE is used to do emit different code
dependent on the current language.
I cannot find any documented way to do it either in Autoconf-2.13 or in
Autoconf-CVS. Neighter can I find any common way. But I didn't try hard.
The ChangeLog states that the old AC_LANG was renamed to _AC_LANG_CURRENT
and the new AC_LANG was introduced without providing backward
compatabitity.
The same happened to CPLUSPLUS.
