We absolutely agree: all the solutions which seem sound are
expensive. This one being the a priori cleanest _if_ we really want
to establish hooks for all the macros in the world. In the case of
AC_PROG_CC and the like, I'm no sure that's what we want: given that
it comprises several very different steps, I wouldn't be surprised
that Libtool and Automake would like to insert themselves at different
levels. Not to mention the order between Libtool and Automake hooks
themselves.

:) :) :) Very true!
