Within @defmac lines, there is no problem with additional whitespace:
makeinfo removes that. However, @ovar and @dvar are useful outside
@defmac lines, too, even though the comment above the macro definitions
does not imply it. While they are not used like that in the Autoconf
manual (yet), I would like to reuse them in a couple of other manuals.
So I'm removing the trailing newline thusly.
Cheers,
Ralf

* doc/autoconf.texi (@dvar): Remove trailing newline.
(@ovar): Likewise. Fix macro documentation.
