Re: m4_wrap behavior

My kneejerk suggestion is to implement m4wrap as POSIX requires, but
to add another primitive (m4parw? :-) that works the way 1.4.4 m4wrap
does.  We can then ask people who prefer things the old-fashioned way
to use m4parw.

I'd rather not have the behavior depend on POSIXLY_CORRECT.
POSIXLY_CORRECT is a pain to use selectively.
