Sure, but the point is also in reserving the name spaces. For
instance, AS_ will be used by autosystem, which creates system.h. You
also forget AH_ already used by autoheader.
At some point I meant to reserve one of these names for the user
macros, say AA_ or so. But today m4_pattern_forbid makes it useless,
you can m4_pattern_forbid([^BD_]) for instance.
... A fly flies...
Actually, I just realized there is no correspondence at all between
reserving the name spaces, and catching the corresponding tokens. But
none *at all*, since if someone uses properly an AX_ macro, anyway the
fact that it was m4_pattern_forbidden will change nothing.
So, I think I'm about to break all the records in making myself
ridiculous and state that:
Autoconf should reserve all the A[A-Z]_ names, but autoconf
should catch only what it currently uses, i.e., A[CHUS]_, and
m4_. Plus AM_ for Automake.
I apologize for the time I had you all waste to make me understand
this simple fact :(. I had my mind completely upside left.
(feeling terrible...)
