I have another problem, which is similar. The problem is the result of
AM_CONDITIONAL. Here is my macro:

AM_CONDITIONAL(BUILD_DRIVER_[]UP, test "x${use_]DOWN[}" = "xyes")

Follow the quoting rule of thumb - if you don't want things expanded
immediately, then use one level of [] per () to protect the argument
collection scan, thereafter, use nested quotes to control how the
expansion is parsed.  You want to make sure that UP and DOWN are
independent tokens after the AM_CONDITIONAL is expanded, so this pattern
should do it:

AM_CONDITIONAL([BUILD_DRIVER_[]UP, test "x${use_[]DOWN}" = "xyes"])

Hum, shouldn't this be:
AM_CONDITIONAL([BUILD_DRIVER_[]UP], [test "x${use_[]DOWN}" = "xyes"])
instead?

(basically s/, /], [/ ?)
