yes, this is probably a good idea. The gnulib manual also says that gl_EARLY
should be called right after AC_PROG_CC.
But as far as the artificial configure.ac is concerned, I think calling
AC_GNU_SOURCE right after AC_INIT doesn't make it worse, so it can be
left the way I did it.

No, AC_CONFIG_HEADERS has nothing to do with this. During the run of
./configure, the AC_DEFINES are collected. At the end of the day,
AC_OUTPUT engraves them all into all config headers.

be declared anywhere (between AC_INIT and AC_OUTPUT, of course).

and it has nothing to do with ./configure execution.
All these facts should be deducable from the Autoconf manual. I have
recently fixed some of this in CVS; if the CVS version of manual doesn't
describe the situation clearly, suggestions are welcome.
Have a nice day,
Stepan
