I've asked this question several times. I'm fine with having 2.54 released soon, with this question solved. Paul, I would also like to have your opinion. My question is merely one of interface. Currently AC_INIT AC_CONFIG_HEADERS(config.h) AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS(config.h, [echo Hello, world]) AC_OUTPUT is wrong (grr, it is not caught, I don't know why, but autoconf is supposed to die on this). My question is should we make this the normal way to hook a command, or should we keep this invalid, and introduce AC_INIT AC_CONFIG_HEADERS(config.h) AC_CONFIG_HOOKS(config.h, [echo Hello, world]) AC_OUTPUT or something like that?
