I agree.

I could not reproduce this (tried to redefine AC_PROG_CC
successfully). Can you send detailed instructions?
Andre
With aclocal 1.8 you no longer get overridden standard autoconf macros
loaded from local *.m4 files. Presumably this is because autom4te always
looks in autoconf/autoconf.m4f first, thus the file that contains the
replacement for a standard macro is not considered for this macro any
more.
