I am using Autoconf 2.68, and just recently began to take advantage of
its support for multi-line substitutions. Unfortunately, I came across
one minor bug related to this.
If I have e.g.
multiline_var='zero
one
!two
"three'
AC_SUBST([multiline_var])
then in config.log, I see
## ----------------- ##
## Output variables. ##
## ----------------- ##
one
!two
"three'
DEFS='-DPACKAGE_NAME=\"AutoconfBug\" -DPACKAGE_[...]
ECHO_C=''
ECHO_N='-n'
ECHO_T=''
[...]
multiline_var='zero
I am attaching a tarball containing a minimal test case along the
above lines.
