This suggestion is wrong; AC_TRY_COMPILE double quotes, so you need to switch it to AC_COMPILE_IFELSE if you want to do the above.

However, I wonder if there's an Autoconf bug or maybe your diagnosis is incorrect, because AC_TRY_COMPILE should use AC_LANG_PROGRAM:

AU_DEFUN([AC_TRY_COMPILE],
[AC_COMPILE_IFELSE([AC_LANG_PROGRAM([[$1]], [[$2]])], [$3], [$4])])
