Rough draft, with a patch which does not fully work: using
AC_CONFIG_HEADERS(config.h)
AC_CONFIG_HEADERS(conf2.h)
AH_HEADER ends up containing both names. Seems to work if no config
header has been declared. Plus I'm sure I chose the wrong way to define
it..
What do you think?
Cheers,
Ralf
* lib/autoconf/status.m4 (_AH_HEADER_DEFINE): New macro to
define AH_HEADER.
(_AC_CONFIG_FOOS): Use it.
* doc/autoconf.texi (Configuration Headers): Document it.
