Limitation/feature of aclocal: it looks at all files in its search path(s) and picks out those you actually use. New Autotools versions (will) have the ability to actually install all the respective .m4 files into the directory specified as AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR in configure.ac (and in "ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS = -I ..." in toplevel Makefile.am); then aclocal.m4 will mostly degenerate into a bunch of includes of the form m4_include([m4/foobar.m4]) Cheers, Ralf
