One workaround is to install aclocal in your account, among the many other packages you already have. This way you control your dirlist, and can even point to the system's aclocal directory. There is little interest in working on aclocal these days. First, the plan is to have aclocal replaced by an equivalant Autoconf feature. So the less features we put in aclocal, the easier the transition will be. Second, using aclocal to fetch macros outside the source tree is considered bad style (that's one reason for getting rid of aclocal). So I'd rather consider the inconvenience you mention as an invitation to use an m4/ directory in your project.
