Let it be for elegance: why would you want to run _AU_DEFUN instead of
AU_DEFUN etc. Leading underscore has another meaning: private. _AC_
is private to Autoconf, _AU_ to autoupdate etc. That's a different
issue.
And anyway, you just delay the problem to the day someone will need
_AR_FLAGS, or _AC_OPTIONS.
