That does not matter.  I hate inconsistent macro option quoting, one
should do it even for the trivial cases just to get used to it, because
the times when an option should _not_ be quoted are very much exceptions
and should IMNSHO be clearly documented so.

I will send a patch regarding Autoconf documentation to the
autoconf-patches list, and have applied the attach patches to all three
libtool branches, which change all such invocations.

Many thanks for reporting all these bugs.  Are there any other
libtool-related patches you have in kaffe?  (The static *BSD dlopen bug
is still open, I don't know yet how to fix it.)

Regards,
Ralf
