Actually I'd prefer as well if the file chipcard3.m4 is being copied into 
aqbanking SVN. (We only talk about copying into SVN here, not adding to 
EXTRA_DIST i.e. packaging.) The reason is that 1. previously for 
libchipcard2, we already had the m4 file copied to aqbanking and apparently 
this worked fine for everyone involved, 2. we don't provide easy instructions 
on how to get libchipcard3 if using SVN and e.g. the SVN path of libchipcard3 
cannot be found easily, 3. if chipcard users (read: you) have libchipcard3 
installed anyway, then its chipcard3.m4 will override the local aqbanking 
copy because the system-wide aclocal directory comes first in the aclocal 
command line arguments and thus the file from there will be used.

So, in summary: Adding a local copy won't introduce any issues for those with 
libchipcard3 installed (i.e. you), but it makes life considerably easier for 
others who only checkout the SVN version but don't use chipcards.
