I don't quite understand this change since I'm not a autotools guru. But
according to the manual, there's a more portable way to do this:

"In the future other Autotools will automatically check the contents of
AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR, but at the moment it is more portable to add the
macro directory to ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS in Makefile.am, which is where the
tools currently look. If libtoolize doesn't see AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR, it
too will honour the first ‘-I’ argument in ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS when choosing
a directory to store libtool configuration macros in. It is perfectly
sensible to use both AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR and ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS, as long as
they are kept in synchronisation."

I'd appreciate a more detailed clarification on what you want to do. Thanks.
