I agree here.

This is a possible solution, but I'd like to propose something simpler:
AC_INIT reads file config.site at its initialization file.
So if the MSYS install process ensures that /usr/local/share/config.site
is present and assigns ac_default_prefix, then everything should work.
I hope this solution is acceptable to you.
Have a nice day,
