Needs more context.  Can you boil it down to a minimal configure.ac and
Makefile.am that reproduce the problem of using just that library, so
that we can see what you have attempted and offer suggestions how to fix
it?  It sounds like it is just a matter of requesting a transliteration
of - to _ in the variable name used to track whether the library is
present, but without seeing your actual code, I can't suggest where to
add the m4_translit.
