But that's what the m4 subdirectory is for, with aclocal. This is
replicating function, and it's confusing. Why not just call it 'm4',
as before? People using aclocal can continue to use m4/*.m4; people
using Autoconf with your new feature (and without using aclocal) can
also use m4/*.m4.

I'm a bit leery of that name, since AC_INCLUDE is the more obvious
name. But then, I don't really know why AC_INCLUDE was dropped.
Before continuing I'd prefer some advice from Akim (or whoever else
knows about AC_INCLUDE -- or maybe you can do some research on this?).
