This is probably a better kludge: http://ac-archive.sf.net/Miscellaneous/ac_create_prefix_config_h.html You run the AC_CREATE_PREFIX_CONFIG_H after AC_OUTPUT(...). You will now have a file named, ``$project-config.h''. Use these project-name prefixed defines in your code and you can go ahead and install $project-config.h.
