LIBOBJ problems

[Matias Atria]

Hi,

I noticed that setting LIBOBJS manually in 2.53 now produces an error, but
I think the way this is implemented goes a bit too far:

$ cat configure.ac
AC_INIT
test -z "$LIBOBJS"
$ autoconf
configure.ac:2: error: do not use LIBOBJS directly, use AC_LIBOBJ [...]

I don't think examining (without modifying) the value of $LIBOBJS should
be an error. Maybe something like

                   [do not use LIBOBJS directly, use AC_LIBOBJ (see section 
`AC_LIBOBJ vs. LIBOBJS'])

would be more appropriate?

Thanks,
Matias.
