Not true, your request has been dealt with:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/autoconf/2006-05/msg00087.html

I agreed with it back then, although I do have a vague feeling that all
the m4_pattern_allow make for a significant runtime overhead.  That
said, I haven't measured anything, and even if it were expensive, a
usability question may be considered more important than an efficiency
one.

But you are not likely to use the first argument of AM_CONDITIONAL
elsewhere in your configure.ac, are you?  (I have probably just
misunderstood this part.)

Cheers,
