for a new project with autotools I'm using libraries not in standard

it all fails: how can I pass arguments in this case?
Supply any needed arguments via DISTCHECK_CONFIG_FLAGS. For example,
this is how I pass user-supplied "environment" variables to the
configures that distcheck runs:
for var in CC CFLAGS CPPFLAGS CXX CXXCPP LDFLAGS LIBS ; do
eval isset=\${$var+set}
if test "$isset" = 'set' ; then
eval val=$`echo $var`
DISTCHECK_CONFIG_FLAGS="${DISTCHECK_CONFIG_FLAGS}'${var}=${val}' "
fi
done
AC_SUBST(DISTCHECK_CONFIG_FLAGS)
