Hello Daniel,
You can invoke AC_DEFINE([YOUR_DEFINE], [value], [Description of the  
define])
See:
http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/manual/html_node/Defining- 
Symbols.html

AC_SUBST is only used to define values to be substituted by AC_OUTPUT  
(typically for AC_CONFIG_FILES, that is the various Makefile.in among  
others)
See:
http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/manual/html_node/Setting-Output- 
Variables.html#index-AC_005fSUBST-989

Cheers,
