According to Rikki Duncan on 5/12/2008 11:39 AM:

Absolutely - AT_CHECK can run pretty much any shell command, so use sed on
the output to filter out your debug messages.  Autoconf does this itself; see
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=autoconf.git;a=blob;f=tests/local.at;h=a772a97;hb=4bd8756#l107
for some ideas.
