Forgive me, but did you actually regenerate configure after doing this? (Joe uses AM_MAINTAINER_MODE, which means those things do not get rebuilt automatically unless you know you have to ask for it.)
Yes, I ran autoreconf and automake after editing configure.ac. I then double-checked that configure and Makefile.in had been updated, and they had new timestamps so I assumed the changes had been made.
