Hi Akim,

I am afraid I can't.  When I autoconfiscated our projects
I, so to speak, inspired myself to some other existing project
(I don't even remeber which one it was).  There, they used
sinclude in acinclude.m4 to make sure their *.m4 files were
taken into account by aclocal.  I just acted lazily and,
without even looking at the documentation, used the same idiom.
All the best,

    Roberto
