Thanks.
I've just checked that in.

Yes.  Since those files are usually also named via
AC_LIBSOURCES in the .m4 file, some tool could cross-check
that against the Files list in the modules file.

I've just added this comment to check-module:

  # FIXME:
  # for each .m4 file listed in the Files: section(s)
  # parse it for AC_LIBSOURCES directives, and accumulate the set
  # of files `required' via all AC_LIBSOURCES.
  # If this set is not empty, ensure that it contains
  # the same (.c and .h only?) files as are listed in the Files: sections.
