Follow-up Comment #5, sr #108262 (project autoconf):

I miss still a bit of information.

Are paths stored in variables like "srcdir" in a way that "special" characters
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Escape_character> (like a single quote) are
escaped by the Autoconf software?
I imagine that another function would be needed to display such data as an
original/unescaped string if it was adjusted by the system infrastructure
somehow.

I would like to point out that there are also use cases to distinguish the
places better in a command <http://www.grymoire.com/Unix/Quote.html#uh-8>
where variable expansion/substitution should be performed.
