This macro is broken by design, violates GNU coding standards[1], is incompatible with autoconf >= 2.60[2], and, even worse, helix-dbus-server doesn't actually use it, so it is dead code that should be removed. - Remove code from configure.ac that more or less emulates AS_AC_EXPAND, for the same reasons, and because it is completely unnecessary because the variables are used from shell code only and therefore don't need to be expanded. The shell can do that at runtime. [1] http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/manual/html_node/Defining-Directories.h...
