Hi,
I noticed that setting LIBOBJS manually in 2.53 now produces an error, but
I think the way this is implemented goes a bit too far:
$ cat configure.ac
AC_INIT
test -z "$LIBOBJS"
$ autoconf
configure.ac:2: error: do not use LIBOBJS directly, use AC_LIBOBJ [...]
I don't think examining (without modifying) the value of $LIBOBJS should
be an error. Maybe something like

would be more appropriate?
Thanks,
